I almost missed this cool Yeti, as I was searching the rooftops as we drove by. But there he was, mounted on a short pedestal behind an iron fence, next to the shop. He has been taken off the roof and now we get a better up-close look. He's in really good shape! A fun stop, but be careful when you slow down; this is a very busy street.

An approximately seven-foot-tall yeti named Cornelius, holding a Mobil Oil sign, stands on the roof of Moonlight Motors in Encinitas. Apparently Cornelius gets dressed up for various holidays.
