Default SF Thank Yous

Thank you Lainey and Rick for leading our caravan to SF. We took some scenic routes in addition to just highway and had a nice drive down. Demerits to Erick though for the Hardees lunch

And thank you to Jerry and Barb for leading the caravan back. Was SO much more fun doing a caravan with others both down and back. I feel like I had a 1200 mile group drive this weekend

Erick, thank you, you get bonus points for bringing GT5... wow! I am amazed. I think I might become addicted to this And no, not enough to give up really driving on track. We'll see after I get to try the game with a steering wheel setup instead of a joy stick...

Many of us enjoyed getting sloshed and trying to drive... even an oval track and automatic car become impossible to drive at some point I never did find the brakes or reverse on the controller but had fun playing with the S on track anyway

Great weekend!

Had a blast. Just had dinner with Poks2k. Great Italian food. Good to see him and Elaine.

Sorry we didn't catch your phone call, Bill. Top down, windy, didn't hear the phone.

no really i was ...

now I may have been the first car in the flow...but it was definitely flowing better when we went through.
It's amazing at how many cars will grab onto the back of quick moving pack.
there were points where I thought I had a snake behind me.


in all seriousness, there were portions of road in PA that the traffic was really humming.
I mean everybody was running minimum 80 mostly 85-90.
