    Didn't feel like working today...

    Popped into my office for about 30 minutes, wasn't into it. Bailed and decided to go for a PCH cruise.
    Weather was about 85 degrees Fahrenheit. Much better way to spend the day than sitting at my desk.
    Only took one photo of the car, with the notable landmark of Mugu Rock in the background:


    Also met a guy travelling north. If you see Derek and his dog Chalupa on the side of the road, give them a ride!

        Didn't feel like working again

        After a busy weekend covering two events (no pictures unfortunately, but one of the events included Jennifer Lawrence. Rawrr!), I just couldn't get my mind to engage in work on Monday. Stopped by my office for a minute, checked in with my crew, then hit the road.

        I've heard rumors of a cache of vintage automobiles on private land in northern Ventura County. I decided to see if I could find them. That part turned out to be a bust, but the trip was still awesome. Closest I came to Tom Merkel's 'Lost Highway' was this locked gate:



        If anyone has any contact with Tom, I would like to get in touch with him about visiting his car art installation.

        Still an awesome drive. Travelled 200 miles exactly.

        Route I took. Basically out and back on the same roads:



        Photo just after climbing up HWY 33 from Ojai:



        I stopped for lunch in Camp Scheideck at the Reyes Creek Bar & Grill. I talked to the proprietor, Tony, about Tom Merkel and his cars. He didn't say he knew Tom, but certainly knew of him. Great place to stop & the lunch he served was awesome too.

        Return Trip at the top of the highway looking back over Lockwood Valley:



        Oh, and I was kidding. Here's a link the video we shot of the Mockingjay 2 Press Conference:
