I think, but didn't verify, that this license plate collection has one California plate from each year


There is a story about the above outdoor phone booth... it was knocked off it's foundation after a birth of a baby celebration got a bit inebriated behind the wheel.... anyway, the next day the phone company man was smooth talked and he told them about the below indoor wooden phone booth that was taking up space in the phone company basement... and they got it to add to the collection!
































I didn't get the info on what kind of bike the above is

Above appears to be a 1938 Ford







Awesome BBQ cooker


The above is the tow truck in the bottom photo of this post
