I haven't really considered my '96 Mustang to be a vintage car.






Until last weekend.

The Wife and I had considered taking a little extended drive  a couple of weeks ago. At first we just considered driving down to Monterrey and back in a single afternoon. But then my Wife suggested that we go down to Pismo Beach.  She found us a reservation to stay just one night.
