World War II Veteran And USS Arizona Survivor Lou Conter From Bob N.: “If you were not able to make the drive-by celebration for Mr. Lou Conter, I only hope you read the article in the Union paper. Just pulling up at Nevada Union high school to queue up for the tour by his house, was overwhelming. I had no idea the city had this many vehicles. The Police, Fire and Sheriff trucks, not to leave out the old cars of the Roamin Angles was incredible. Lou Conter was not just a…

Saturday, Oct. 3, 2020. We all had a great time at the “Car Poker Cruise” Saturday October 3rd. Some 40+ cars signed up to support downtown businesses by parking in town and exploring the 13 stops on the “cruise”. Because of those 40 car owner’s generosity, approximately $600 was raised to help Grass Valley’s Downtown Association support the town’s business activities. I was on site talking pictures and tried to anonymously watched the civilians stop at the various cars and check them out. Just like at “Cars and Coffee” and…

I don’t know much about the photo, except a friend of my father named D.L. Brown saw it in the USS Arizona Museum sometime in the Late 70’s.  He immediately  recognized my dad, Richard Stopp, due to his hunched over shoulders.  My father always had that stance.  D.L.  mailed him a copy.  Later on, Dad received a US Navy copy, stamped on the back with the date, etc.  That one is unfortunately gone. No idea where it went.   I was with my dad when he got the package with…

One of the nice happenings at Cars and Coffee is that there are many families who drop by and cruise the cars in awe as they did at “Cruisin the Pines”. The kids love to see and…

When the head of the local CHP office tells you “It’s been WACKO”….well…then I’m not crazy.
