Modern Vespa

In a week, a group of BA MVers will be riding multi-hued vintage fenderlights thru this valley to SLO-town for Rides of March....

That was totally worth the wait!
Nice job on the clue!!

(But I have no idea
hope someone else is working on this)

BA = Bay Area

SLO-town = San Luis Obispo

Oscillator and others are meeting in San Jose and riding down.

here's the map of the route



As I am in VA and don't know the area that well, I traced the map in Google and tried the valleys I found- no luck.

So Oscillator, care to give some out of towners another hint?

the hwy in question goes down a rift valley past a national monument consisting of half a volcano. The other half is ~250 miles south.

\oscillator

ok I give up


As I still can't find it.

The hwy has to be Airline Hwy as it's the only one that passes a national monument (Pinnacles).

But I can find no valleys listed near it, and I have googled all the valleys along the route.



(and by the way do you know how many valleys are in California - so many that I think you need to rename it to Valleyfornia)

Dang, I thought this was easy peasy.

Google "Hwy 25 + california". Its the wandering lizard one, then scroll down.

will it would have if. ....

oh never mind I'll just file this info way for the next time.

will I hope breturi7 is having fun in -







(hint, it's not hilton)

This is another movie, isn't it?

I knew that ignoring contemporary culture would get me in trouble eventually

no it's a city - type in just the city name and you'll get two choices.

Embarrassing...


Like I said about not being up on "contemporary culture"

again you don't need to up on "contemporary culture" , at least not for this one.

when you type in just the name of the city GIS will give you two
related searches: (in blue) pick the one that the city is in.

I'm not very focussed this morning

For MessyColoring, this one should be much closer to home:

The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, DC is please to announce the unveiling of a new work by Claes Olenburg entitled Vespa.

Closer to home, I use to call it home.

I lived up there when they first opened the Hirshhorn, we'd go there a lot (great place for a first dated) and then head over here for some shopping (well more like window shopping) but there were some nice restaurants that weren't that expensive.


Oh man and Commander Salamander now that was a fun store.

Looks familiar--I did my last year of high school near DC
(And just loved the Hirshhorn, back then it had just opened)

But I'm running behind and won't be able to get to it for a day or two,
so if anyone else spots it--it's yours

About the Commander Salamander:
does it matter whether we are talking about the old location (on F Street) or the new one (on Wisconsin)?

you're not looking for Commander Salamander but the name of the area that that store is in -

Georgetown

Dang it! How did you find that?

I looked under every Georgetown combo I could think of long before I started on the Commander Salamander thing.

It so looked like Georgetown!!

(Edit:
Arrrgggh!
I must never have tried Georgetown my itself!!)

(2nd edit: Try it without the DC and it moves up!
And I have no idea what that is she's stomping on)

Did a search for "georgetown dc." It was buried pretty far in though.

It's enough to make your head spin. Quick and easy because I have to run to a meeting.

it was just georgetown (no dc or washington) second page, third from the left.

Not on my machine. Ah, the quirks of GIS.

With someone else's Bella:

Perhaps too easy,
Nixon's downfall:

break-in

This area of Washington's name is derived from the names of two, formerly segregated area elementary schools-the older, all-black Thomas P. Morgan Elementary School (now defunct) and the all-white John Quincy Adams Elementary School.

You bet your ass I had fun! I think it's impossible not to enjoy yourself in the city of love...and scooters. I was even convinced to go all cliche-tourist and take a smoochy pic in front of the Eiffel Tower with the little wifey. It took lots of arm twisting but I finally caved and did it.

I hope to rejoin the tag as soon as I take care of the mountain of crap that's been piling up since we left.

Oh well,
this is the closest I'm getting
and it's definitely not a tag!

close enough, on throw a scooter on it and post a new tag.

Actually a John Deere/Piaggio moped.

I'm hoping that Breturi7 was here recently

No, his wife went to the Louvre and saw the Glass Pyramid by I.M. Pei will he was shopping for "scooter gear"

"shopping for scooter gear"

Was at the Louvre pyramid as well as the Moulin Rouge (which is a LOT smaller than I had previously thought.)

You can check out a few of my Paris pics on my MySpace profile...

And what type of scooter accessories was Breturi7 supposed to be picking up here, exactly?
I hate to think!!

One of the twins, from the Moulin Rouge,
tooling about nearby (or at least in the same city).

that's me
