    Wandered into a spot that could be a great location for a photo shoot (Too bad I have limited skills and a point & shoot). Of course there are outstanding roads in the area too. Now name this place.

    I've never been to that gas station before, but they sure have big pumps.

    Why do I think the Lambo Club America is doing an event at Amorosa in 2008? (Vague recollection.)

    Were you in one of the Ferraris (red 360, red 430 Spider) that exchanged waves with us?
