Huell travels to the town of Temecula to see how the “old town” portion has been brought back and is better then ever.

Couple of gems in there. Coke machine and the beef jerky.

Watching the city of Temecula grow has been “amazing”! As a child it was great when we could sit in back of the pickup with our hair blowing and hay flying in our face as we went into town for dinner. I also fell in love with Mexican food as a kid when we ate at The Bank…I remember one night people cheered and were happy because I was wearing a (Los Angeles) Rams sweatshirt…we must have been doing good that year 🙂 There was a time when hot air balloons were outlaws. Whoooooosh… whoooooosh… those were the early morning sounds we woke up to as another hot air balloon either landed on (private) property or flew overhead. Thankfully this is not a problem anymore 🙂 Another great thing to watch over the years has been the success of the Pechanga tribe. In 1996, my family and I went to see comedian Paul Rodriguez. It was outside since there was no casino resort at that time. After the show was over we went inside the trailers where the slot machines and gaming tables were located. It was so crowded we could barely make our way through! Today, in 2013 Pechanga continues to grow and adds to the rich history of the beautiful town of Temecula.
