This was my second trip to Steve’s, and a lot has changed since my first visit in 2004.
We also had dinner with Don Bies that night, and I brought R2 along just in case. He was quite the hit at the restaurant. Don even got in on the act and decided to take him for a spin.
Here’s a few photos from the visit to Steve’s and there’s more in the gallery.

I’m pretty sure this is the barn used in the R2 Beneath the Dome DVD. It’s located in the property adjacent to Ranch Obi-Wan.
