Ordered a new set of Hankook Ventus V12 this morning. Installed 911Tuning exhaust a couple weeks ago. 3" 100 cell cats.

On Friday, drove the car with the top down on the twisties of rural West Marin County with my wife. Ended up having lunch at Nick's cove where I shot this amazing photo from my iphone 4. Second photo shows the hood of the car looking into Tomales Bay.

During the drive, the weather was beautiful with 72 degree weather in SF, and cooling to 64 in Marin. During lunch, the fog started rolling in.

Interesting things about both photos: a) I proposed to my wife at Nick's Cove, and b) We got married on a hillside off of Clark Road. The paved road intersecting Clark Road is US 1.

Washed my car. First time in like 30 years that I've washed a car myself, but those 11.5 rear wheels don't fit in many car washes. The compact size of the 911 makes washing the car much easier than other cars.

Snapped a shot right before I was starting. The only thing that we had cold was a bottle of bubbly. Appropriate that one washes their 911TT whilst drinking champagne, right?

Picked it up off a Rennlister about a year ago but progress was slow or non-existent last year as I had much higher family priorities to attend to then.

Changed oil, waxed the inside of the wheels and scrubbed the wheel wells.
