What People Drive in Orange County, CA Part 2


Part 2

I love finding cool cars to photograph. Here's a few more fun photos. This is a look at what usual classic cars people drive in Orange County, CA. With gas prices being over $4.00 in most of Orange County, CA it's surprising there is still a lot of cars on the road. We gotta drive though, without a car, most people here are just not used to walking. Orange County, CA offers multiple traveling options besides OC local airport and car rentals, there is the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) buses, Orange County Yellow Cab taxis, and Metrolink and Amtrak trains (including a California high-speed bullet train coming soon to include a stop in Anaheim, CA. - near Disneyland and Angel's baseball stadium). 

People on the west coast still prefer to travel in their own personal vehicles. Take a look at some classic and unusual Alysa Good Stuff pick original car photos from 2011.  (All rights reserved.)

Last but definitely not least... what a hot rod... or is it a hotdog? This traveling mobile American food work of art.. is certainly not my most favorite of vehicles, but yes it is a traveling Alysa Good Stuff Favorite! The Oscar Mayer Wiener mobile. This mobile hotdog has changed much over the years and has traveled across the U.S. to unsuspecting visitors like me or you? This is the latest model of the Oscar Mayer Wiener mobile, spotted in south Orange County, CA. 2011. They gave out free wiener mobile whistles to kids, coupons, also photo ops.

Return To My Blog... Free Fun On a Tight Budget Tip #1 Photography!

Wow, been so long. I am not unloyal here, I like this blogging stuff, especially goodstuff! But I have been away due to family circumstances I needed to help with that took so much of my time. Isn't that the case for so many right now, especially probably overworked people that just need a real break just to be with family, or even to have room to breathe?

Let me recommend one fun free activity on a budget.


Fun doesn't cost money #1 6-2011

This can be done alone, with 2, or with the family:  Cost $0-$20, Time 2-4 hours

Grab your digital camera and come up with a theme to photograph. You can do this even while driving around and take photos of different areas or your passenger can snap photos based on your theme (as long as gas prices are low enough). Your theme could be about anything, colors, beaches, trees, flowers, even road signs that catch your attention. Go home review your photos, edit/crop. Print or have them printed at a fairly low price at Wal-Mart or Costco etc (1 hour photo is best, they even may have editing on the machine you can do right there).
Once you have your photos printed, spend some quality time at home, making a collage or fun scrapbook of your otherwise ordinary day that was now an adventure through photography! This can be great with kids too. You could even go to the park and do this one... eww even "bugs" theme for boys or tough girls. Be creative!
