    I'm sorry I missed you, PV - but come back around soon! I'd really like a second chance to give you the proper warm welcome a fellow Ferraristi deserves!

    Just a quick reminder: If you're planning on coming to dinner on Saturday, please let me know - I promised our host at Rubino's that I'd let him know how many people and cars are coming around Wednesday evening.

    How many of you will I be seeing at the ES Treffen on Thursday evening?

    Awesome, Jay! Looks like a small turnout (about 7 or 8 of us, unless we have other takers), but it should be a very nice dinner! And I'll see you tomorrow night, as well. If Relish doesn't work for us, I know a place that makes killer appetizer Margherita Pizzas just a snail's crawl from there. ;)

    So glad you can make it, Nate!

    What a fantastic group we've got! We'll be getting the private room at the back for ourselves, so we still have space for a few more.

    Well, the first SACRED dinner was nice. The service was a little slow and the air conditioning left a lot to be desired. The food was excellent. It was great seeing everybody. Didn't get to talk to as many as I wanted. Hope we can get together again.

    I'm glad you guys had a good time! Corrie and I went home pleased that everyone seemed to enjoy their dinners, and, moreover, the company. The A/C situation was a bummer, and I'll cross my fingers that our next dinner doesn't run into the same lousy luck. I was happy to see almost everyone again yesterday morning, as well!

    ...And we'll be driving again on 7/16. As there's still snow on the ground in the higher foothills (!), we'll do our January Run again, with a variation or two (I know now that Ram's Horn Grade is usable, and great fun!). (Anyone wanna contact that group of Minis to see if they wanna come along again? :D )

    If you haven't come out with us before, that's cool - don't be shy! We don't bite. Well, aside from Pierre. But he's had his shots, so we're all good here. ;)

    Did you notice when Pierre fired his car up when leaving the restaurant, several people at the other tables said, "That's got to be one of the Ferraris outside". I thought he was going to break a window.

    Hahah, yes, I heard people talking about it. AFTER it made me jump out of my seat a little.

    Yesterday, Pierre and I drove down 50 together after the movie. We took turns blasting by each other, though I get the feeling he wasn't nearly as impressed at my runs, as Corrie and I were with the sheer torrent of noise coming from his car. I got the standard-issue "Orrie...!" as he and I took off from the light by RPM, over the overpass, and Corrie told me, "You two are SO BAD together!" I nodded and smiled. There's nothing like the sound we get from all of our cars. Nothing. And damn, it's fun.

    I'm gonna be there tomorrow morning - would one of you gents be able to give me a lift to Ben's shop, to pick up my car for the weekend, afterwards? Otherwise, I'll be late for the coffee meet, as Corrie'd have to take me to Ben's first, and I'd join you after that...

    Thanks, Nate, Dave and Pierre, for coming out this morning! Was a nice change from the daily grind that is my workday.

    Pierre, thanks again for the drive to pick up Pomodoro... I'll call you to hang out, as soon as my hearing returns.

    You have to take Corrie for a quick ride at some point. It would go a long way to proving my point that, "I don't drive that fast, really..."

    Just walked in the door after coming back from Tahoe. Car performed well, and the drive went pretty quick (we just took 50 home). The ride up was excellent, and I highly suggest everyone do what we did this year, next year: Make it a two-day trip. I'll talk with Adam about getting a room bloc for us next year.

    Thanks, Dave, for the advice on Embassy Suites. They made self-valeting a breeze, and couldn't have been kinder.

    Corrie hit a nickles slot machine for $250, I did pretty well at Pai-Gow Poker last night.

    See you guys next week!

    Just found out about it an hour ago from Pierre, so I'm gonna wash the car tonight, and make my way over for it (it's too damn close to the house for me to have any excuses...)
