The Motorsports Hall of Fame is cool. It does tell the story of motorsports in America.

Cars and Women's Fashion of Yesteryear

 

I forgot I had these: I was at the National Automobile Museum in Reno last summer and along with the cars they had an exhibit of women's fashion mixed in with the cars:

It was interesting to sit there and imagine women wearing those fashions and getting into the cars. 

My Favorite Dive Stadium

 I got to head to my favorite dive stadium to see the Green and Gold play:

There was a full moon at the Coliseum 

And as always I had to take some pics from stadium:

In honor of the late great A's Player and Broadcaster Ray Fosse who passed away last year

And I got to see some history as Shohei Ohtani hit his 100th home run:

But the best part of the whole deal was being able to go to game with my son:

The Coliseum may be a a dive stadium but I am happy to have a major league baseball near me and I love my Oakland A's.

A Nice Way to Start

 

A couple of weeks ago, I had to go to a work training. It was four blocks from Ocean Beach and I got to spend a little time there before just looking at the waves:

It was so nice and relaxing. A great time to spend before doing some work training.
