Vroom Vroom

FEO LOOKING UGLY.

Nico came out of the womb saying VROOM VROOM. Lately his car obsession is pretty intense. He loves the movie CARS. Strangely enough, but not so surprising, he loves the bad guy "Chick Hicks" who Nico calls "Feo"(ugly) because whenever Chick would try and hit another car, I would say,"Que feo!"

Riding on the current love of all things auto, I took Nico to the Petersen Auto Museum. This Museum is light on visitors and perhaps is best known for being the spot where Biggie Smalls got shot. That, and the place Aaron used to park when he worked for Skateboarder magazine.

It's not the most popular museum, and never in a million years did I think I would be buying a ticket for entry...but I come away a Petersen Fan!

It's a meticulously kept museum. The cars are gorgoeous. Your kid has lots of room to run and is not in danger of breaking a priceless Rodin sculpture. They have a kids playroom on the third floor with cars to climb, train tracks to set up and uniforms for dress up.

I fell in love with a Studebaker station wagon, and with the museum. Do I see a Membership in my future? I guess the car crush is contagious!

IN A PAST LIFE, I WAS THIS CAR.
