And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Lombard St in San Francisco. The last time I went down it I was driving the VW bus and one of my kids read the sign "No Buses" at the top and gave me a hard time about ignoring the sign.
I was born in SoCal in the late 50s. I went up to SF for the first time around the summer of 75 and SF was nice. That part of Lombard St was a tourist mecca and full of cars driving down it slow speeds.
Heck all those cars even look clean.
ReplyDeleteLook at all those boats! How many tree humper carts could be made from all that Detroit iron?
ReplyDeleteMid-1970s. Hopefully the Pinto doesn't explode.
ReplyDeletePinto is going the wrong way on the one way street.
ReplyDeleteIt's in their driveway.
DeleteHaven't seen a Country Squire in a long time. Is the dark car above the Pinto a DB6?

ReplyDeleteThat photo image is very - very old.
ReplyDeleteSF used to be a great place. I miss those days. Now I won't set foot in California.
DeleteCali-fornicated itself...
DeleteI bicycled down that street once just so I could say I did. About the time of that photo.

ReplyDeleteLet’s give it a go…Monte Carlo, Cosworth V8 Vega, 2 Town Squire Station Wagons, Pinto, Cadillac and maybe a Jaguar?
