It's been a few years since I have been able to attend. Will make it this year. For me it is a 3 mile trip. Great restaurant. Wife will join me.

This is shaping up to be our largest Houston dinner ever with 30+ people! Looking forward to seeing everyone. The forecast looks like it will be cool and dry, so should be a good turnout.

Don- Craig Johnson, owner of C&B European Car Care in Katy would like to join us.

Want to buy a watch? A 928 watch that is! I bought mine from Shawn Stanford and I just don't wear it. It's the Seiko he recommended with his 928 design, see thread for details ... Asking $100, a heck of a deal!

I've got 3 Paint Corrections & Details scheduled for Saturday and Sunday. If you need my services, I can do one more Monday morning. Paint Corrections are $400, Details are $500 and Show Prep start at $750.

I'll be back Thursday - Sunday for 5 more in the Seabrook and Houston area. The LSRPCA Concours seasons opens in just a few short weeks. Thomas Roy, a 928 owner, is the Concours Chair.

I'm heading to San Jose in February for a NORCAL 928 Paint Correction & Detailing GTG. We've got 8 cars lined up!

Andy,

Craig is a 928 owner and mechanic so he is certainly welcome to join us.

I hear you get to work on Ron's beautiful 85 euro. Can't wait to see it when you are finished. I don't see many resprays that impress me, but his car's paint is amazing.

What a great time yesterday, big thanks to all that came out. Good to see old friends and make a few new ones. We had 30 for dinner and I think about 12 928s.

If we were giving out prizes, Kristopher's black/black 89 with 18k miles would have been a winner. Always fun to see 928s that look like they just rolled out of the showroom.

Here's a few pics from the evening....

I had an outstanding time on Sunday meeting everyone. Jennifer was grateful there were other wives that shared her "tolerance" of our obsession/hobby and views on just about everything else. We discussed on the way home how certain types of people are drawn to particular things. In this case, drawn to an incredible automobile and an incredible group of people.

Looking forward to the next event.

Yes it was great to see a bunch of sharks and their handlers all in one place. Kudo's to Don for putting everything together. Perfect weather was a bonus!
