SF Bay Area CHP Retirees Event

[mac88chp]

Was invited to bring my Mustang to the CHP Golden Gate Division's annual Retirees Day and Open House event held at their division office in Vallejo this past Wednesday. It was a nice event and a great opportunity to talk to and share with some of those who drove the type. The other vintage vehicles that attended included an '86 Mustang and an original '55 Buick. Got to look at and crawl around inside some of their current equipment and also check out the new vehicle comm system now going in service-wow! I was also lucky enough to get a personalized tour of the communications center which handles traffic for the entire greater SF bay area. Super interesting stuff-too bad I wasn't allowed to shoot some photos inside there.

Did take a few on the outside to share here:

Stopped on the way in to grab this early morning shot with the Mare Island (ex-Naval) Shipyard as a backdrop:
