		The 18th annual Optimist car show and chili cook off was held on July 18th 
		at Sylvan Park in Redlands. This show brings in a lot of really nice 
		cars and trucks of all kinds and this year was no different from the 
		last. 
		 The gates opened at 7am and we showed up soon after. There are lots 
		of venders selling food, shirts, etc, a beer garden, chili cook off (which seems weird because 
		it's the middle of summer), a live band played most of the day along with 
		fun and games for the kids.  
		With temps right around the century mark and the humidity near 50%, 
		this made for a hot day...even if you were in the shade. Lets start off 
		the show with this beautiful 56 Chevy that caught the eye of just about 
		everyone that passed by.
