Car Show Back From Being Canceled Last Year!

May 13, 2021

Happy Thursday Morning,

News reports about

rising gas prices across the Southland

have been eclipsed by stories of

gas shortages on the East coast

So, I can't believe I'm saying this but good for us and our high gas prices - because it could be worse, ugh...

And if you're feeling lucky you might want to plan a road trip. Because

some of Las Vegas is opening to 100% capacity and without social distancing!

Finally, one of the countless car shows that was canceled last year is back this weekend! Plus it benefits a great cause. The

Motors for Music Car Show

supports the San Marcos High School music and color guard programs. It's this Sunday, there are lots of categories and awards are announced at 12:30 PM.

So after the show, you've got the whole afternoon remaining!

Drive safe,
