Grants Pass hosts bear statues decorated by locals. It’s local color.
As in Scotts Valley, there is no possessive apostrophe. Its downtown was a whirlwind of activity on June 4, hosting a classic car show.
The manly car show crowd was a bracing antidote to the artsy femmes of the Ashland theaters. Sure, we briefly dropped in on a show of art quilts in the Grants Pass museum, but there was not a healing crystal or a handmade scarf in sight. We admired the restored cars. JG likes to play Guess that Make, Model, and Year. He showed me a ‘49 Chevrolet Fleetside that he said was like his father’s ‘49 4-Door Sedan. In his youth he learned to appreciate cars and assemble car models, although model airplanes were his greater passion. It’s fun to see him hearken back to his boyhood. It wasn’t only just blowing things up in Billy Clark’s basement.

I like your eye for telling details! I have seen the healing crystals and handmade scarfs of artsy femininity, and the crowd they typify.
I’m glad Dad enjoyed the cars and the memories they prompted.
