This is one of a series titled One of San Diego's most beautiful back-country drives The annual Passport Through Time, organized by The Historic Highway 80 Corp., is this weekend. It begins at 9:00 a.m. at the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum located at State Route 94 and Forrest Gate Road in Campo.
Drivers will head east to Jacumba and then back to La Mesa with ten stops along the way.

Wow Jim... that looks like such a great event... wish I was going to be in town! Kathy
What a fun event! I would just love that--too bad I live on the other side of the country! And, love your kitty photo too--how precious she is when she poses!
This looks like so much fun. I would love to be closer so I could participate. If you go... we would love to see the photos.
Jim Historical motor route tours sound like they woul be extremely interest especially the last stop to wash away the road dust :)
Hello Jim - It sounds like a great day. I wish we were in So. Cal. to join y'all.
Hey, everyone.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting. I’m running behind on reading comments, but rest assured that I’ll read them all, and if there are any that need a response, I’ll put those in individual comments after this one.
Also, I do return comment for comment, so I’ll be by our blogs, if I haven’t been already, to do a little reading and commenting. Hope you’ll have the welcome mat out and lots of good stuff for me to read.
And if you need a cat book for that special cat person in your life, I can highly recommend “The Cat Lover’s Book of Days,” by our own ActiveRain Member Peg Silloway.
