At Professional Winter-Nationals '78 at Bee Line Dragway in Phoenix, AZ in February, 1978. This track no longer exists. Scanned from a slide.
My wife's cousins - (The Saints) with a pulled back muscle he and his wife gave up their room so my wife and I had a place to sleep. Then got up still in pain and Barbecued us some ribs coz he trusted no one else with the grill.
Poor '55 Chevy. This was once a complete restoration, but now in in less then fair shape. Either it's turned into a daily driver with no tender loving car or it just sits out in the elements 24-7. Somebody has riped the top and tried to pull it back.
Other than the neatly stenciled markings on this one - there was one other thing that was worth seeing.
Right front bumper shows the unit that this Ambulance was attached to. You can't see the '4' that is on the far right end.
4077 MASH
(if you don't know what that is from - go Google it)

MH-60R Seahawk
The MH-60R is designed to replace the SH-60Bs and SH-60Fs, and be a true multi-mission helicopter. Its sensors include the ASE package, MTS-FLIR, an advanced airborne fleet data link, and a more advanced airborne active sonar. It does not carry the MAD suite. Pilot instrumentation will be based on the MH-60S’s glass cockpit, using several digital monitors instead of the complex array of dials and gauges in Bravo and Foxtrot aircraft. Offensive capabilities are improved by the addition of new Mk-54 air-launched torpedoes and Hellfire missiles. All Helicopter Anti-Submarine Light (HSL) squadrons that receive the Romeo will be redesignated Helicopter Maritime Strike (HSM).[11]
The Fleet Replacement Squadron (FRS), HSM-41, received the R-model aircraft in December 2005 and has begun training the first set of pilots. In 2007, the MH-60R successfully underwent final testing for incorporation into the fleet. As of August 2008, the first 11 combat-ready examples equipped HSM-71, a squadron assigned to the USS John C. Stennis (CVN-74). According to Lockheed Martin, "secondary missions include search and rescue, vertical replenishment, naval surface fire support, logistics support, personnel transport, medical evacuation and communications and data relay.

Flying against the Phantom during the Vietnam and the Cold War - was the Mig-21.
[this one came to the CAF via Pima, and the USMC Air Museum, and it is suspected to have come via a defecting pilot (from Hungary - those were the markings) in the early 80's].
Pete's Fish and Chips, a long-time uber-popular fish-n-chips chain in the Phoenix area.
I don't know why, since the food is lousy, with fish squares reminiscent of the junior high cafeteria, and those little nugget things are "shrimp nuggets" (I don't think I've ever seen processed shrimp nuggets anywhere else...). People make a huge deal about the special red sauce here, but it's basically... ketchup. Blech.
But the place is overwhelmingly popular for some reason, probably since it's a ways to the nearest ocean so nobody knows better. Myself, I consider it a waste of stomach space.
(I was meeting friends, otherwise I would've gone elsewhere).

Being the Cubs first home exhibition of the year, this is probably the kid's first time seeing a bat shatter up close.
