10-05-01 Patterson Tesla Del Puerto Mt Hanilton Mines

[johnny]

we stayed in and watched the indycar race from kansas city... we went to that race several times when it was in the summer... but with the change to spring we gotts to watch it on tv...

after the race we roll out to patterson pass... a lovely area of rolling hills and fans... lotts o fans... if you ever wondered why the tracy ca area is always so windy... just look up on the hill... they gotts hundreds of fans rolling like a mow sucking the air polution from the bay area and blowing it into the central valley...
