Whom did I see in Ja Jolla on Tuesday?

Staying at La Valencia, and waiting to get picked up by our son about noon, a lovely silver (identical to my own) BS rumbled by. Does it belong to anybody here? AS

Wasn't me, mine's white. Besides I don't know where Ja Jolla is.

Just thought you should know.

I think I might have recognized Chip (even if I can't spell La Jolla).
A peculiar thought crossed my mind that morning. I had rented a Lincoln Town Car from Hertz, and realized that in La Jolla, that is more uncommon than a Black Series.
But, I realized that if I didn't have a BS, I would still want one.
Having said that, the new Benz SLS is also very appealing.... AS
