Xmas Toy Run
We had 34 Vettes on this run from Temecula,Ca to Anza,Ca. We delivered toys to the Anza Fire Station and then had a buffet lunch at Tumbleweed Junction Cafe....
Wife and I hosted this run with Temecula Corvettes...
Meeting in Temecula
Three of us stopped at local indian casino afterwards...
Wife and I had a wet drive home 80 miles from Anza...(and it snowed in Anza last night)

Very cool Rich
Glad there was a great turnout for a worthy cause. 
When I had my Harley, I participated in many a toy runs for underprivedged kids. ESPECIALLY the coldest & one of the biggest in the country. The Chicago "Toys for Tots" bike run usually held in December. Snow or not....thousands turn out.
Your generosity will be returned to you a-hundred fold...

It was cold...about 35 F..(no heater in the 78,but wife and I bundled up .
)The firemen were great...they had a fireplace going and served hot chocolate/coffee..Anza is a small community at 4000 feet elevation..there are only 5 firemen manning station...the fire captain asked me if I would not mind locking station up should they have emergency run while we were there...in fact,that happened last year..they cover fires,highway accidents,etc..
The valley is filled with a history of pioneers and Cahuilla Indians. The town is named after Juan Bautista de Anza.
