My old neighborhood in quiet little Scotts Valley, getting all shot up.

Our decision to leave CA looking better all the time.

Yep, formerly known as "Blood Alley" because of all the head-on collisions there.

Nowadays it's know for its hapless commuter flambé

It doesn’t get more loopy liberal than Santa Cruz. It’s the home of the dumb f***s.

Some of my best friend lived there (Scotts Valley) in the mid-60's/late 70's.

I often went to The Chateau there on the Old Santa Cruz Hwy. I had some good ole Hippie times there.

I left the area and moved to Florida in 1973. My last place of residence in California was Scotts Valley.

I drove 17 twice a day for years.

It got better once they put the concrete divider barrier all along its length.

Big Moody Curve was probably the worst of it, though there were a lot of inexplicable mishaps up at the Valley Surprise area.

23 years on that road for me.

Got rear ended once on the Bear Creek ramp. Got a new car outta that deal.

Shoulda been a 6 lane highway thirty years ago. All they do is patch it, and more people croak on the misgraded curves.

Least the Fishhook got fixed. Mostly....
