Guys, Mike and I will not be able to make it this Saturday in Dallas. To many family obligations due to our birthday being on Sat. The following weekend our local PCA regiion will be having their annual Councours de'Elegance at my country club. Mike is going to enter his new ride to see how it does (you never know). Ya'll have a great time and be careful on the trip (it's a long one).

We'll miss seeing you Mel, and Mike. Good luck in the Fiesta Challenge!!

I'll be at RUF, but not for lunch. I think I'll skip the last run session of the day to come see y'all. And I would like to add that I have NEVER missed a track session. So y'all must mean a lot to me. Ahhh...

Good to see you guys tonight after leg #1 of your trip!!! Happy tyou are enjoying my suggested hotel. I do wish Steve had remember to bring his thong though.... Next time I'll make sure to ask God to turn off the overhead fan and maybe we'll be able to spend even more time togther and you'll get to see all our stuff before it's all sold and gone. OH MY GOODNESS!!! The wind is blowing so bad!! Worse than I've ever seen it ANYWHERE, even in R Can Saw.... Actually it's not blowing as bad at our place, only about 35mph. At the hotel???? TERRIBLE. At least 50mph sustainded winds and SAND!!!!!! YUCK! Almost blew me over, IN THE PARKING GARAGE and I'm a big girl! Sheeze.... Figures.

Please, if it's still blowing like this in the morning, stick around for a while and let it stop. Your cars are too beautiful to let the sand ruin......

I'll post the pictures we took in the morning I promise, okay Steve?

Call me and DRIVE CAREFUL!!!!

About how long is everyone planning to be at RUF? We have to take one of our dogs to the vet at 11:30 and I plan to head to RUF from there. I assume everyone will be there for a couple of hours or so...correct?


Thanks

Stage one of the trip to Ruf is in the bag!

The guys are now back on the road and might even be over the border and into Arizona by now. Tonight.... El Paso.

Here's a picture from from las night in Rancho Mirage at the new Agua Caliente Hotel and Casino. It's the only picture that isn't way too dark and I didn't take a single picture of the cars. They were in the parking garage covered with sand and it was a sorry sight. I didn't want top be reminded of how they looked draped in Silica sand (the hotel is right next to a patch of federally protected sand dunes). The winds were blowing at a sustained 50mph with gusts to who knows what yesterday afternoon and all last night. We left our 993 at home and took the new truck. It is now well sandblasted...... oh well..... we had fun with the guys and Robert won at the tables

ANYWAY it was great to spend time with Terry993, CP Pong, CatalinaJerry and his wife Sara and I can't forget Steve (CA993twin), however I was very dissappointed that he forgot to bring his thong.......

I HATE IT when the pics are dark! I could only fit my point and shoot camera into my handbag, so there you go...... The problems we women have. lol
Pong (CP) Me (RJT) and Steve (CA993twin aka Old Fart):


In the Bar after dinner. Is it just me or are we all leaning to one side for some odd reason?
Terry, Steve, Me, Robert (my Robert) and Pong
