Tractors in full twinkle rule this whimsical wine country parade
DRAPING STRINGS OF LIGHTS... across all sorts of large objects and enormous yard features, from porches to pergolas, has become a whimsical way of life for those people who adore decorating for the holidays. Other sizable spots, including garage doors, swing sets, and oversized gates also get the glittery treatment each year. When it comes to vehicles, however, the decorating remains generally demure: You might spy a wreath hooked to the front of a car's grill or perhaps an elf doll placed near a car's rear window. But there's a town in Calistoga that likes to fabulously festoon all sorts of things on wheels, especially the huge machines that dutifully serve our communities on farms or by delivering food and a plethora of much-needed goods. It's the Lighted Tractor Parade, a colorful and quirky Calistoga tradition, and big trucks, hefty construction vehicles, lengthy flatbeds and other on-the-roll mega machines make merry appearances in the popular procession, one of the only events of its twinkly type.

Beloved Classics, Rebuilt: Inside Vallejo’s Kindred Motorworks
The building sat empty for thirty years. Now, on Vallejo’s Mare Island, it holds some of the most carefully reengineered classic cars in California. Kindred Motorworks takes the Ford Bronco, the Volkswagen Bus and the Porsche 911, three of the most beloved shapes in automotive history, and rebuilds them as modern machines. Most are fully electric, and every one keeps the silhouette that made it famous. The work happens inside a former naval shipyard of more than 100,000 square feet, where metalwork, bodywork, paint, upholstery, engineering and final assembly share a single roof. A Bronco starts at $225,000, with the Bus and the 911 priced higher.
