Michael, your pictures are awesome! Thank you for capturing scenes from today better than i could have. My favorite shot is the one of Dell, Rich and Bruce coming around the curve at the lake.

Looks like you guys had a great time. One of these days I'll make it. Unfortunately my car was in the shop for an alignment, tires, and inspection. I should get it back Monday though.

Not to hijack the thread, but where exactly is the PCA/Italians meet at Brier Creek on Sat? Which shopping center and what time?

Good seeing everyone and the collection of Porsches, and a fun run! Unfortunately my day ended several hours later when the 911 lost power. Had to have it flat-bedded to Chuck in Hillsborough. Hopefully the news will turn out to be something simple. We need to do that more often. What vintage Porsche was that pulling the cart? Rob, enjoy NJ

Hmmm.... is everyone on vacation or do they just miss Bob?



Ken was holding down the fort with his lovely daughter so we did our part to keep things going. Ken parking in the 928 section and me in the 911 section. Or is it just that I am a creature of habit and park in the same place every week?



As we were about to take off, Martin showed up in his C4S. I was planning on doing a scouting run for more roads to drive and Martin decided to follow along. Maybe not such a good idea since I got lost. Twice.
We still had a fun drive though.



I did finally get back to a familiar road and we ended up at the usual cooling down spot.



Martin learned his lesson about following me and headed out first.



Until next week .....

Michael
