How was it?
I would normally go every year back growing up in Carmel and WAS planning on heading up to visit family and attend some of the shows but had too much going on at work this week.

Historics and the Concorso Italiano are my favorite events of the weekend, (never cared for Pebble Beach Concours though) but some of the smaller shows like the Barnyard Center and the Baja Cantina shows are pretty cool too.
