I'm out visiting my Dad this week out in California. One of the things that I truly enjoy is the ability to drive my Dad's dream car. Back when he was in his 20s he had a 1964 1/2 Mustang. My grandfather had them too. Dad did pretty well financially in his life and one of the gifts he gave himself was this classic Mustang.
I remember one of the best days of my life as being when I drove around in one of these predecessors. I was on I-5 right next to the ocean. I was driving a classic Mustang that purred when it idled and roared when it was go time. I had 20 bucks in my wallet, and I had a beautiful girlfriend I was sharing the day the with.
Getting to the beach in my Dad's classic Mustang
The bluffs
After heading to the ocean in the Mustang I went out and took a walk on the bluffs. This bluff walk is one of my favorite views in the world. You got a blue sky, deep blue water, and a touch of desert landscape.
It's a touch of a vacation
I'm still online a ton, still checking DMs, still working on projects, but with a nice change of scenery and a nice a visit with dad.
Look at that view! I half way expected you to rip off your clothes and jump into the water yelling no regerts!

Awesome! Sick car, my Dad had an old MGB he wanetd to save for me, but when my little brother was born, my Mom made him ditch it for a station wagon lol I enjoyed listening to your orientation and some of the townhall the other night. I gotta get more into the Discords. So much to get into on/related to Steemit! lol

Ooo she's a beauty! My dad's '68 Camaro used to be candy apple red, but he was constantly getting pulled over it seemed, even if he wasn't speeding! They say it has something to do with the color red. Anyway, now it's a beautiful canary yellow, and it is still such a thrill to drive! So I totally get the feeling! Dads are the best, and I totally appreciate still having mine around, as I see you do too! :)

Looks like a good day overall! Love the beach. I don't know that I would have gone swimming if I knew that I was going to be getting into that beauty when I was done. Wouldn't want to get saltwater on the seats or sand on the floorboards. Stuff is meant to be enjoyed, but not if you're messing up a 65 Mustang!
Enjoy getting to cruise around in that. I'd be giving you jealous looks if I saw you drive by. :)

I can totally relate. Growing up, my dad had a 1972 Datsun 240Z. That car would flat out haul. One day I would love to get my hands on one, although it is not cheap like it was in the seventies.
Nice that you are able to spend some time with your dad. Mine passed away a few years ago, and I often wish I could have spent more time with him. It is so easy to get wrapped up in our lives we lose sight that other parts are passing by. Have a blast, and keep making those memories with the ones you love.

Nice! I had a 65 in High School. Then I traded my Dad for his 68 because it had a 289 instead of a 6. Then I watched a couple of weeks later at my Dad's Asphalt Plant as that 65 burnt to the ground after being surrounded by hot asphalt from a leak. :-( Also, I played music in CA with a friend from Laguna Beach named Mark Turnbull years ago and remember how beautiful it was there......Anyway, enjoy, Mark

Driving your Dad's dream car being one of the things you truly enjoy speaks volumes about the level of tender attachment between you and him. No matter what we do, family is where the heart really is and where true love emanates from. I have a feeling that this pedestal of love is in abundant supply in your family. Please don't ever lose this love. It is the perfect bond of union. Happy vacation @aggroed

I’ve been to california several times and we would always hire a nice big convertible to drive around in. Fuel is so cheap in the US that engines are huge! Good days.

That’s the way to do it! Enjoy your work so doing a bit of it while on vacation or in a new place isn’t a slog so much as a nice break from exploring.
Also a change of scenery alone can do wonders for a person’s happiness!

Sweet car. Some advice from someone who lost both parents before i was 25, put your phone away and enjoy every second you can with your parents. You will only have them for so long. Work and steemit don't matter at this point. Have a good vacation.

Great travel @aggroed so happy that you'd been able to visit your dad. It's a wonderful feeling being with the person we love. I remember, I have a foreign friend from California who really are proud and he even let me see a bit of the beautiful places he has been there. Nice blog Sir.

Nice that you drove your dad's dream car, even nicer that your dad lived that good life from early enough. everyone wishes for that good life and to be able to treat themselves to their dream need. Reason we have to work as hard as possible to achieve this things for ourselves and live that dream life. Or maybe one i would make enough money from Steemit and be able to afford a car for myself lol

All I see is I have a beautiful girlfriend I was sharing the day with. Seems you are one who creates time for people you love. A visit to your dad and a hangout with your pretty girlfriend. By the way, beautiful scenery. A dive into the water would have been a great way to end the day.

Your Dad car is still a beast today, I can imagine the feeling something years ago with your beautiful girlfriend, reminds me of the song by Rick Ross Aston Martin music. The kinda life we crave for back here. Do you still have that 20bucks, I might be needing it 😂. Have fun sir, how's pops?

Most fathers are not sure their son would make until they make it. Every parent joy is to see their children happy and living their dreams. Steemit made that possible for many.
I hope you have a good vacation. Hang out with friends and drink little beer... just little. Congratulations on the car too.
