    I’m an LSU tiger alum - grew up in Houston - but he is at a great school not that far away. I like most of the Texas schools.

    Happy Thanksgiving to all the Tifosi!

    Working in the garage last weekend. Great times. Used to have a Black with white tail Ducati 749S. The 996 SPS is in the right spot.

    And finally the view toward the F355 Challenge with the Aston nosed in. Both the red F355 and Aston are normally facing out toward the doors with their battery tenders connected at the rear with GFI boxes in the floor. Wife's dream car - a Mercedes convertible rounds out this foursome in the slightly longer bay. We could have our own F1 team battles with the top three teams represented. This area could fit two more cars but I like the room to walk around the cars a bit and for my seating area. The Ducati and shelves are to the right of the TV and Mercedes.

    Robb,
    Garage is beyond amazing! Your wife's car wouldn't happen to be an SL would it? I have a 2009 SL65 and it appears to be an SL variant.

    My wife calls it the “green car”

    I call it “the blue Mercedes”

    So I’m glad we are in agreement. :D

    In charlotte again for several days of photography of the Bank of America buildings.

    Last time I was here I missed out on meeting a local 355 owner...

    But we were able to meet this trip.

    Had a great visit with Skipp today over several hours and a good lunch.

    Great guy and enthusiast. His cars were absolutely top notch and immaculate.

    I’ll try to help him on a future garage expansion.

    My favorite car of his was probably his 98 f1 but it was a tough call.

    Too bad the weather was crap so no drives today. My brother was very envious of his Dino.

    Robb,
    I'm in Mesa (again) next week if you care to meet up over coffee. I know you don't know me, but work for the Apache Attack Helicopter program and visit Boeing Mesa often. And again, your garage (temple) is spectacular!

    Joe,

    Thanks for your kind words. We are right under the (longbow) flight paths and like our Boeing neighbors. Give me a call and we can get lunch and see the cars / garage.

    Robb,

    You're very welcome and I will call next week after I see what my schedule will be at the plant, but lunch will be very doable and I very much appreciate it.

    Out today with Rick and his 458 in NE Scottsdale. 75 degrees. What a car! Holy smokes. Crazy fast. Good noises only second to the mighty F355... Very comfortable. Love the model and color.

    This with an F355 would pretty much set you up for life.

    The standard 458 wheels are growing on me. This is the modern 355.

    Yeah those wheels have a little more substance than the pointed ones that can appear a little too thin.

    These remind me of 348/355 wheels.

    So if I could add a 458, it would be on these rims.
