Wow, what an amazing journey. Thanks for sharing all, and giving me a trip to aspire to. Based on your fun factor from this, I'm sure this won't be your only one.

Wow... where is that, Javier?

BTW, I had several neighbors asked if I had a Porsche Convention last weekend? They said they heard the rumbling of the exhausts... it had to be your beast and RUFUS singing
I want to say N.M, but it was kind of a blurr

That's funny about the exhausts... I would have to disagree and say it was Rufus and your car. By far louder than mine at idle.. mine screams when hauling *** though!

It was NM, but getting close to UT. It's all a blur now.

just hooked up with niche and TJ90 for a bit of 993 comparo viewing, a beverage and then had the chance to be treated to the sounds of 500+ hp blowing by my right ear as niche's new aquisition walked (ran) away from me.
GREAT Aural sex.

Craig,

It was really nice hanging out with you guys. We really have to do it more often. You should've heard TJ laugh as we "checked" her turbos. He even had me give his neighbor a ride. He suggested I start charging per ride... Hmmm?

Javier,

You are a very talented photographer. Have you ever thought about applying that skill to real estate?

Thanks for sharing.

I like to do my own photography on my listings. Some agents have asked me to do their houses, but I ususally don't have time.. tomorrow funny enough I am photographing a friend's listing.

For some of those pics: some times a no-handed driver

Niche says: Look Mom, no hands.

And he has the pics to prove it.

Oh well,maybe just maybe there will be another Road Trip in the future.I am so glad you guys were able to go and experience this
Hey Mike,

Terry and I are scheming about a northern route next: Idaho, Wyoming, Montana etc. Would only be a summer or fall drive. Absolutely incredible drives once we're east of Boise.

We don't know what year yet. Do you want us to keep you posted if this happens? It'll be less than 4,000 miles. Map Quest says 3,999 miles.
