Wound up in Long Valley again today. I'm up there so much, I started looking at houses on Zillow. LOL
On the way back, roughly an hour ago, I spotted what appeared to be a gray or very light blue 997 (I think) Carrera S on 78 East, dodging and weaving it's way through slower traffic. Was that any of you?

I’m usually playing soccer Sunday mornings. But I’ll join in on Sunday afternoon and/or Saturday gatherings or drives when I can.
Took a spontaneous drive today, with one of my kids, down to New Hope to eat some wings at Triumph Bewery. Wait was too long (St. Paddy’s Day pre-celebration, judging by all the green). So reversed course and headed up to the Long Valley Bew Pub in, uh, Long Valley instead. Oldwick Road, north of 78 up to Long Valley, is a blast when there’s no traffic in front... and I had a pretty clear run. Briefly found myself behind a black Carrera 4S before it pulled off onto one heck of a steep driveway.
Was my fourth time at the Long Valley brew pub, which has a pretty large parking lot. Basic pub food, but done quite well, IMO. Could be a fun meeting place, with tons of parking in off-peak hours.

I agree about the relatively good condition of the roads in the Long Valley area. No terrible potholes and decently paved, for the most part. And some nice curves and elevation changes.
Contrast that with the roads in PA. I drove the "back way" (Amwell Road to 202S to 263S) down to Horsham, PA a couple weeks ago. Once over the border and past New Hope, there were car-killing potholes everywhere. Got a little better after being on 263S for a bit. It's a much more fun path to take (than NJ TPKE to PA TPKE). But until they patch the roads, I wouldn't drive it at night.

LOL well I'm a fool! I wasn't even thinking of the shopping center :P
Will try to make it in that case - look forward to meeting you and the rest of the folks!
