Great, great gathering today. Crazy how you get numb seeing another '73 RS or another pre-A 356, or a Carerra GT just sitting in the parking lot. Tons of 993's. Wish I would have been able to meet more rennlist members. Maybe next year...

I just got home and have a ton of pictures. Good fun on the drive up at 5AM and the weather turned out to be ok. I'll get my photos and videos organized.

In the meantime, check my instagram: @blee_der

I hung out with Jaeger for a little bit and mostly walked around with Rich 24FPS, but aside from that didn't see anyone I knew. Such a bummer because I knew lots of people who went. It was a big show though this year. Much bigger than a few years ago in the Deus parking lot!

Meeting RLers in person was far & away the highlight:
- Chats with 24FPS (thanks, Mike!), Budge96, C4SDave, FisterD, Flyt993, Gonzilla, JPP, MarkD, mcipsEric, producerJohn, Race911, RJT, Stout, & more RLers who woke me up from Porsche overload

Lesser highlights of an amazing event:
- Getting email that Luftgekühlt was interested in red Speedster spotlight.
- Text from Patrick asking if we could talk, followed by me curating 4 generations of air-cooled Speedsters.

- Overhearing CA RLers who are driving instructors at the Porsche Experience Center Los Angeles realizing they're lucky to have so much Porsche goodness so close
...without someone having to tell them

Parting shots before hitting the long road home: RLer mcipsEric's SY 993...

What a great event.
Nice to finally meet Rudy! Beautiful Turquoise Blue 993!

Jager, always good to see you. You and your wife looked great, along with speedy! You did a fantastic job with the Speedsters. Patrick was right in choosing you. I know you put a lot of work into making it a success.
Thank you for the shout out and posting pictures of the Speed Yellow 993.

Hope to see RLers at PECLA (Porsche Experience Center Los Angeles). We have a great time with all the different modules, rare cars and the 917 Restaurant and Bar.

Until Monterrey week or sooner!

What a weekend! I am very grateful for all of the Rennlisters I was able to meet and spend some time with. Bummed I didn't get to meet more. The event was HUGE!

Jäger - it was great seeing you Yesterday. Wish I saw Karen too.... You and I wusually have a ton of fun when we talk. I want to apologize for being so short and distant yesterday. I had a terrible headache and I knew if I did not get a cup of strong coffee in the next 5 minutes we'd be leaving for me to get back to Mom and Dads and lay down. The coffee did the trick and we looked for you again, but you were not around. I promise next time will be like old times.

What a great show! I would have liked to have met more of you. I recognized a few faces but didn't get a chance to go up and say 'aren't you from Rennlist?' . As always it was great to spend time with Rudy and his Fabulous familia. That is one blessed bunch!
