Had to stop by Motte Automotive Museum, and I'm so glad we did!…read more They have a great collection of great looking vehicles from different eras and great staff!

We had a wonderful day yesterday at the Motte Museum Big Barn Classic Car Show here in Menifee…read more This was their 12th annual event of which I've attended a few. The Sold Out car show was full of beautiful Classics, Customs, Muscle Cars, Hot Rods, Trucks and Low-Riders. The parking facility was loaded with eye-candy for every palate. The show was run flawlessly under the leadership of Tommie Brown and the whole team at the Motte Museum. The Big Barn was displayed with a tribute to the Corvette from the families collection. Every generation, but my favorite was the 1963 Split Window "Fuelie" on the turntable which I would have to sell one of my houses to own. From the free coffee and donuts to participants, to the cars, to the polite hard-working staff, the food trucks and awards, this was a Fantastic event. Major kuddos to Tommie and the whole Motte family.

Well this is a cute downtown area!…read more What a nice surprise! It has been over 10 years since I've been in this city's downtown neighborhood. I love how festive this area is. During the holidays there were lights and cute little photo opportunities. This is a nice walkable downtown area. Lots of restaurants/ food options throughout this historical area. If you live in Lake Elsinore, I'm sure this is a go-to place for everyone in town. It has things to do and food. There's even a thrift store there too. I really like this downtown spot.

I'm a 3rd generation lake Elsinorian. However I have never been to this museum. This place is full…read moreof rich history. The volunteers that work there have a great sense of humor and are very knowledgeable. There is so much history in such a small place, everything from Elsie (the Lochness monster of lake Elsinore) to the lake Elsinore Grand Prix and Malcolm Smith. It was amazing growing up hearing about all the history in this city I call home, and then coming to the museum and seeing it come to life. Everything there was donated, but it is still so rich with history. I would highly suggest coming and spending about an hour or more to really take in everything there. The museum was amazing, and the staff was even better.

Jack's Automobile Museum - A Timeless Treasure in Temecula…read more What an incredible find! Jack's Garage is hands-down one of the coolest "man caves" I've ever stepped into. This private museum is a nostalgic journey through the golden age of American automobiles, featuring nearly two dozen perfectly restored classics--both four-wheeled and two-wheeled beauties. The centerpiece? A 1914 Ford Model T, the first car off an automated assembly line in the U.S., and a fitting tribute to Jack's lifelong passion for engineering and innovation. The space itself is a masterpiece: designed to resemble a 1950s full-service gas station, complete with working lifts, vintage vending machines, a classic Coke bottle dispenser, and even the bell hose that rings when a car arrives. It's like stepping into a time machine--clean, well-lit, calm, and filled with charm. Amenities are next-level: carnival-style popcorn that never runs out, Jack's own coffee blends, a gorgeous bar stocked with top-shelf whiskey and craft beer served in chilled glasses, and a cozy lounge area that feels like a family room. Just note--this isn't a restaurant or public bar, and visits are by reservation only. I discovered this gem during "Temecula Jazz 2025," an intimate jazz party hosted by the Temecula Valley Conservatory of the Arts and Jack's Garage, benefiting music education in the valley. The event featured lunch from Old Town Deli, complimentary drinks, and unforgettable performances by: The American Jazz Institute Plays Thelonious Monk Jeff Colella & Putter Smith Duo Kirsten Edkins Quintet Tom Ranier Trio Each set was electric, and the atmosphere was pure magic. I didn't want the night to end. Huge thanks to Jack Morehouse and the team at Jack's Garage for creating such a special place. If you ever get the chance to visit--don't miss it. It's a memory-maker.

This is my first time to the stadium. I really enjoyed this stadium It was small and not so…read moreoverwhelming with crowds and parking. They had a good variety of places to eat and at the end of the food area was a large restaurant with TVs screens and plenty of tables. It's a first come first serve basis there is also an area that you can reserve for parties and it has a view of the field. If you get to the area early, there are plenty of shops and activities to do such as bowling and a movie theater. Bathrooms are very clean with plenty of stalls. Has any other stadium the food stands get pretty packed so come in and get your food early. I would love to watch another game here probably not during the summer though. We came at the end of May and it was hot.. I want to mention the beautiful memorial structure. They have at the entrance of the stadium to honor Veteran's and all branches of the military.

It's opening night. The weather is perfect. It's a great evening for baseball…read more As far as the stadium goes, the stalls in the restrooms were replaced...finally. I didn't notice too many other renovations since last season. It's a very nice facility though. As far as stadiums go, the Diamond is one of the nicest. Sadly, the crowds are light. It's a real shame since it's the first home game. The concession lines are absolutely ridiculous. Nobody wants to wait in an hour and a half line to get food and drinks but they have no choice at this point. Yes, I can order from my seats but that wait is substantial as well. There are two bartenders in the Tap Room. The bar right outside the Tap Room is closed. There just aren't enough employees all around. Why can Storm not get it figured out? This was an issue last year and still persists. It's only the first home game. Why do we keep buying season tickets? Unless something changes drastically, it will be the last season for us. Do better! Your customers deserve more. We didn't pay to waste our time waiting in lines. We paid to watch baseball.

Okay so I was veryyy hesitant to come here due to the reviews about staff being rude, but my man…read morereally wanted to go for his birthday so we did it . We got 3 races plus the bronze license which was about $200 per person in total. With this we got gloves and a head wrap thing to keep and you can use their helmets and jumpsuits. We were under the impression you had to wear long sleeves and pants period. BUT turns out you can either wear the long clothes (and just race like that) OR you can have short stuff on and use a jumpsuit. Thank you to the really nice patron that told us that! It is soooo hot out there and a jumpsuit over long clothes was suffocating and unbearable. We went on a Wednesday around 1130am for races starting at noon and had no real issues . All the employees were super nice and didn't give any attitude. The races were about 15-20 minutes apart. We called days ahead and were told weekends were their busiest days and you would likely be waiting over an hour in between races . No thanks. It looked very new and legit , like they hold actual racing tournaments there (I'm sure they do but we didn't ask). Very clean and the tater tots were delicioussss. We got all the information we needed at the very beginning. If anyone is like me , big doses of information go in one ear and out the other . With that being said I wish it was more beginner friendly. We were given all the information and were sent on our way. We didn't really know where to go, just kinda figured it out . Most of the help we got was from the very friendly patron mention above. Just little questions we had like "can we take our water bottle with us" or "can we leave our stuff out here?" ALSO , I am 5'9. My man is 6'3. Those carts are not meant for tall folks lol . The first race I kept getting cramps in my calf. By race 2 I was slightly more comfortable. Race 3 I didn't really notice as much anymore but just know, it is definitely and adjustment. All and all, really amazing experience. I'll give it a 4 because although the employees were nice and answered questions when we saw them, I wish we had like someone to guide us through it all being that it was our first time. At least for the first race. We will likely come back being that the license lasts a year but thank you guys for the awesome experience!

However,karts there are terribly maintained,there are only 2 fast karts in a whole row of over 15,you do not get to choose your karts,you get assigned to them.A huge issue with the karts are the seats,the karts are so recked that the seats are sideways,they are not facing the steering wheel,they are like 5-20 degrees off the right or left side.(Only like 2 karts don't have this issue)top speed of the karts are quite high,however the pick up is extremely extremely slow on most of the karts(one of the good kart is no.43) The track is quite wide,wide enough to make mistakes.However i heard they change their track often so if i remember the name right the name of the track i raced was north smth.It was a little too short but good corners.

The talent is top notch--including local as well as Broadway performers. The venue is intimate and professional. This event is something Temecula should want to hang onto.

In the four years since I first saw this program, the only Cabaret at the Merc I missed is one night was when I was sick. This is a stellar program. There are so many things great about it. The talent is fantastic and the producers wonderfully match the music to the vocalists and band. The vocalists come from a variety of places and backgrounds that show the quality of their professionalism. The band is top notch. Leigh, the piano player, is an amazing pianist who adds a tremendous touch to the program. Will, one of the guitar players, will leave you craving for more. Not to play second place, the venue is part of what makes this program so fun. It is a very intimate setting, where there is frequent banter between the audience and the performers. The feel is light-hearted and you can tell the performers truly enjoy participating. The fun of sitting a few feet from extremely talented people and taking in beautiful music is an experience. Each theme presented stands on its own and range from Broadway to rock to soul. Am I over-the-top for this program.....yes!

Easy to register, quick check-in, kit items were well made, plenty of food trucks, vendors, and free corn hole games. It is an event for everyone. It was a perfect mommy and son outing. We were able to play a few rounds of cornhole, decorate our water latern and then release the laterns. Such a memorable experience for us both! Just remember to bundle up because it gets cold (we even brought blankets). I've been wanting to attend and @ieyelp reminded it was fast approaching (even offered free general admissions)! A must for us next year!
