Hey Dan, My aunt and uncle ( elderly ) used to live in Warner Springs, My
uncle was ill and I would drive them back and forth to the hospital in
Murrieta thru Temecula , nice country. I have cousins who live on Barona
Ranch , Also Lakeside near El Cajon, and Pasadena. I visit a couple times a
year.
Dak content I used my cousins 5.9 Dak when I was there, but now he has a
2004 Viper convert :-(
