    About Us

    IMG_0332.jpg

    When we met in 1987, Chuck had a dark blue  1973 Alfa Spider, that started  only when it wanted to. Ah, but he was in love with that car. A few years later we got a 1984 seafoam green Spider which we reluctantly sold when our second baby was on his way. Now, 26 years later, the kids are grown and he finally got his dream: A 1985  red Alfa  Spider for us to travel around California (and places beyond), finding and exploring all the riches this state has to offer.

    Let the adventures begin.
