Looks like ithe ole man and I have to deliver a car to santa barbara area some time around the day before the 4th, so we will probably leave out the thursday before (and make a mini vacation out of it). On past trips to so cal. we have ventured off of 40 to havasu but got turned around by the wives before we made it down to the Parker ( ??) area (they were ready to get back to vegas that time), this was before i was on the boards here and i was only asking locals where to head to see some v-drive action. So this time if anything is going on i wanna stop by and check it out, where area should i check out and what should i look for ? ?
