We Get Around...

Man, it's really been over a year since I've made a post on here. I actually almost forgot this blog was still up. A lot has changed since my last post. Everyday life has changed as we know it. Although guidelines for everyday life are now easing up, it's still strange to step outside and socialize. Car stuff was really put on hold early last year and has recently started picking up again. Boba & Chill has become my regular go-to meet on Friday nights, but Sunday mornings belong to Cars & Coffee.
I really enjoy early morning meet-ups. The cool air in the morning, seeing the sun come up. It's really a great way to end the weekend. A usual Sunday consists of meeting up with a couple homies to cruise to whatever meet we are headed to that day. Some clowning around and bullshitting take place or some last minute detailing. Everyone is usually still half asleep but it's still a good time.
The guys at @we.get.around hosted their first Cars & Coffee this Sunday and man... what a great turnout. It was hosted at Lee's Sandwiches in Gardena, CA. Lemme tell you, that iced Vietnamese Coffee hits DIFFERENT. It had me tweaking. But anyways, here's some coverage of what went down today...
EDIT: I didn't realize you couldn't save photos straight from the blog, but you can find the photos and save them from here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1C5fSayxEcPCsFJEUG5YvrOTUbVdRuRlx?usp=sharing

Even though Erik is out of town, his older brother Rafa still brought his EM1 for some fun in the sun.

Gibby has only had this car for a few months and it sure is coming along. The white paint paired with the Racing Green TE37's makes for some really nice contrast.
