After picking up my old high school buddy, Ron, from his downtown hotel, we drove over to Balboa Park<\/a> to spend some time at the San Diego Automotive Museum<\/a>. Not the biggest auto museum around, but an impressive collection nonetheless and one I really enjoy visiting from time to time. They have a temporary exhibit of beautiful, old classic Woodies from the 40s and 50s that runs through May. We also checked out their amazing collection of historic motorcycles that Ron, having been a rider since high school, was very interested in.<\/p>\n

My favorite cars here at the museum have always been the Cadillacs from the 30s and the 1913 Pierce-Arrow Raceabout.<\/p>\n
