    While puttering around in the driveway this afternoon, I heard a familiar growl. I looked up and watched a yellow California T drive by. As it passed, I noticed it had paper plates- it was brand new. It turned in 2 doors from me, into the house that was just built from the ground up after a tear down. The new neighbors just moved in.

    I walked down there on the off chance it was still outside. It was, and he was in it. He picked it up Thursday and it had a whopping 70 miles on it. Turns out this is his 3rd Ferrari, he's had a 360 and a 430. Also 2 Ford GT's and an Audi R8.

    We had a great chat. I'm a little surprised that a Ferrari lives 2 doors down, but it's nice to have a neighbor that understands!

    Did you tell him about the Ferrari club of DFW? We have this REALLY old guy that drives a 328. I am not sure if he is lost or just suffering from old-symerers!! He does have a patent on dirt.

    They asked about you when they were picking the car up, we had them sign the waiver, and told them not to give you any food...or you might not go away.... LOL

    It's been initiated. You won't be able to come within 100 yards of me.
