Default Great time!

It was awesome as usual and it's always fun to bring first timer's from Houston. They were blown away by the friendly people, cars and great driving. Here's a few cell phone pics.

Should have called someone.

We didn't finish until 1:00PM or so.

Jeff,
If that is 150001 miles on your odometer, your car is almost broken in.

Really good to see you. Sorry I didn't get a chance to talk more.

Thank you my friend.


I also really appreciate you looking out for me on our drive on Saturday!


Btw, tapped my dash several times and the gas and speedo came back so got to enjoy full gauges on the trip back to Forney.

While we are on this thread, just wanted to give a thanks to everyone who had me in their prayers.

Just got a job offer today for Bank of America at $50/hr starting 11/28/16. Did a great job for them last time, but didn't take the perm position since I wanted to stay in Texas and didn't want to relocate. Texas is my home.

Perfect week with a good friend down for a week long vacation.


Had a fantastic weekend with good friends old and new and a fabulous time driving my 928 and just being able to savor the brilliance of Porsche's first clean sheet design and followed up by the panel interview which was the 4th interview followed by the job offer today.


I feel truly blessed!

Bring a radio next time.

No more close calls.

Well, except for the people who try to run you off the road while passing.

Yep, my 928 fellow drivers drove well and I gave good margin of safety, but the civilians had other ideas...


Thanks again!

The drives were great!

The Weather was perfect!

No Crazy breakdowns, and assuming no deer collisions....

I think the left right center game at Becker winery was rigged....

Great seeing old friends and meeting new ones!!

Yep, 150,001. Took some of 150,000 but it was blurry.

It was a good time. I'll be back next year.
