Happy holidays, and merry chistmas everyone





I believe the above image was taken by Scooter McRad http://scootermcrad.blogspot.com/ last year, and is one of the best hot rod Xmas photos I've come across

Idiot who drove around the police barrier because he thought his Porsche could make it regardless of the flood level river running over the road

The next moron at least didn't risk a Porsche at the next road crossing the valley, same result though
The San Diego River floods over these 2 roads, and one more I didn't bother photographing, every year when the rain storm hits for more than one day. This happens a couple times minimum every rainy season. No one is shocked that the police put up these ribbon barriers and try in this minimulist way to keep people from trying to drive across the river.
