>Coming up in less than 2 weeks is our annual excursion to the old Jack
>Murphy Stadium (now called Qual-Comm Stadium) in San Diego for the Big 3
>Swap Meet. We are part of a large group of local old car nuts who go down
>there every year, mostly to kick tires and hang out for a few days, but also
>to clean out our garages of unusable junk and to buy rare gems from others.
>
>This is the best swap meet on the west coast, in my opinion, with very low
>fees for sellers, no cost at all for buyers, adequate parking, and usually
>very nice weather. The whole group from the Temecula area, plus some of
>our friends, will be parked in our usual spot, namely right in front of the
>"H3" parking pole, visible from just about anywhere on the west end of the
>parking lot. We'll arrive Friday afternoon, and be there until around noon
>on Sunday.

>If you are in the area, and have nothing else useful to do, you might enjoy
>looking at other peoples junk as much as we do. There are enough things to
>amuse the whole family, although the emphasis is primarily on old car stuff.
>There are a lot of 50s and 60s cars there (and some real bargains!), but the
>main attraction for me is the really old stuff, from Stanley Steamers and
>Model Ts to brass era antiques.
>
>The stadium is located at the intersection of Interstate 15 and Interstate
>8. To enter the swap meet, exit the I-15 one exit north of I-8 (Friars Road
>exit), go west about 1/2 block and take the off ramp to the stadium
>entrance. Come by for a cuppa coffee if you are in the area. Our camper is
>a "Sandpiper" - it will be right up against the H3 pole. Our official space
>number is WD44, but the parking poles are much easier to see.
