Somewhere in San Diego
My Dad and Grandfather took a trip to Southern California around June 1967 timeframe, here is one of the slides from that trip. View full size.
W. Broadway, San Diego
The last time I was there was August 14, 1965. I was amazed that I thought I knew where it was so I verified the Pickwick and the U.S. Grant hotels.
We left the next morning, Japan, P.I., Korea, Vietnam, Back to Olongapo and then to Sasebo and Okinawa -Kadena - I flew from Kadena to Castle AFB in early Jan 1966.
County Courthouse at 500 W. Broadway
We're looking east on Broadway. All those wonderful (!) shops in the building between the Honda billboard and the vertical blinds of the Courthouse are gone, replaced by the Hall Of Justice in 1997 or so.
The Hotel San Diego coffee shop was a preferred break destination for personnel from the courts and affiliated services. Mid-morning it was thronged with judges, attorneys, and probation officers. Many a plea was generated there and formalized across the street.
Hey, sailor!
There are so many cool things in this shot! The cars are to die for -- a Caddy convertible and a couple of sports cars for starters. I want to stay at the Hotel San Diego and check out all the neon. Lastly, let's invite that sailor out for dinner and a drink.
Two Austin-Healeys
Two Austin Healeys -- a 3000 about to run down the sailor and a Bugeye on the curb. And a '57 Chevy ragtop!
All rust free.
