This year had us scrambling at literally the last minute, when fires
broke out threatening the town only days from our planned
departure for Santa Barbara and the Wheel's and Waves car
show. The car show was understandably canceled, so alternate
plans had to be pulled together in just a few days. Even with these
last minute changes the trip was another great outing for BACC.
Here's how we spent the weekend:
Friday- Drove down to Santa Barbara on Friday as planned (with
our traditional impromptu pool side gathering)
Saturday- Drove down the coast early to Simi Valley for the
Valiant Mens Ministries Armed Forces Day car show benefiting the
Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, which supports the families of men
and women lost in battle and those severely injured in combat.
The organizers provided us parking, the mall where the show was
held provided "significant others" apple shopping, in fact many
asked if we could stay longer. We did stay till 1:00PM for the
honor guard ceremony before continuing out to Malibu and then
up to Ventura for lunch. Our group showed their support and
generosity by "passing the hat" for this organization and
contributing about $300 for this very worthy charity. Saturday
evening had us back at the hotel for the planned Not Knott's
cocktail/wine/beer/tequilla/etc. reception before folks set off for
various dinner spots in town.
Sunday-Breakfast was at the old Wells Fargo stage stop Cold
Springs Tavern , the afternoon was open to explore the area for
shopping, wine tasting , spa treatments or relaxing by the pool
(with our friend Jose Cuervo). Sunday evening we again met up at
the hotel where transportation was arranged to our traditional
dinner at The Palace Grill .
Monday it was back on the road for our drive home.
