Good morning!

As a reminder to myself as much as you - Valentine's Day is this Friday! :0)

And it's about time something like

this special couples cruise

came along.  I mean, there's probably been something like it in the past.  But nothing recently that I can think of.

Starting at Segerstrom, then rolling to Marconi and finishing at Lions Automobilia.  Now that's a cool day.  Where else could you do something like that but in Southern California?!

The rest of the shows and all the news I've curated for you are listed below.  

Get drivin'!

-T

Segerstrom - check, Marconi - check, AND Lions Automobilia - CHECK!  So cool.  And it only happens in Southern California. Details HERE.

The one that started it all?! Many say YES!  Huntington Beach gets up early on Adams Avenue.  More HERE.
