Swap meet and Auto show, Auburn and Modesto

In search of cheap parts we end up at a Swap meet in Auburn, California. They start at the awfully indecent hour of 6 AM on a Sunday morning. Given the fact that we have to drive for an hour there too, that is just way to early for us. We arrive at 8 AM and find lots all ready packing up again. The weather is promised to be hot today and temperatures are rising. Our search does not lead to the purchase of the items we are looking for, but we did have a good time and head to the highway again to the next meeting in Modesto.

We only came to Modesto, California because we learned that this is where the Orange Bomb was located before it was transported to the Netherlands. We wanted to feel its vibe and man what a vibe it was. This Sunday we visited the Memorial Auto Meet at the Fruit yard, just a couple of miles away. As you can see, the grass is greener in Modesto then anywhere else in the US.
