Hello all.
Welcome to August 2021. More of the same heat as in July. Will be glad when September gets here.

I don't know if it's a heavy fog, or light mist. But my wipers are on.

Happy hot day in California. Might as well get used to it, because it is going to stay this way for quite some time.

I'm going to keep an eye out at the impound auction. These types of cars, once The City releases it after it's no longer needed for evidence, have a huge tow & storage fee.....and go unclaimed because the owner isn't able to pay for the fees.

I should go down to the tow yard to see what's being auctioned. I kind of like that Fox Body Mustang. It's probably got all sorts aftermarket goodies under the hood.




t looks like the police are towing some pretty nice cars.

After 30 days of storage fees, I doubt anyone would be able to get it out. which of course is why they put a 30 day hold on it.. They don't want the original owner to get it out.
