Wow, beautiful pictures. Wish I could have made it. I spent most of the day under my car installing my Koni's. I gotta go test 'em out now.

Great provocative pix 05TiGr8Lady! I don't know much about Ferrari's but according to one of the pictures, was it an automatic? Nice job Kris & all for what appeared to be a great time

Thanks!

I accept no responsibility for your car being scared to come out and play, Darin.

Pics are up.

Wow! Nice pics and an awesome day to boot for a great drive!

I was planning on participating on this drive but unfortunately they moved our OT from saturday to sunday that weekend. Plus now it seems they permanently made sunday our weekend OT day until the game ships on September. So that means no RX8 club drive for me until after September. That's unless one is organized on a saturday.

Anyways, grats on a great drive and a wonderful turn-out! Cheers!

If the Ferrari comes again I'll make every effort possible to make it, even if it means dragging my mom out of bed at 5 a.m. and propping her up in the car. I totally missed out on some good drooling. I LOVE Ferraris!!!!

I'm out for the July night drive, though. I work on Saturday nights until 12:30 a.m. and the vacation spot for that day is already filled, unless I call in sick, but that would also mean trying to get Robbie to be "sick" from work and leave so he could go with me. How hard could it really be, though? He's the boss.

So Sorry I missed that drive. My dog got really sick and might not live for much longer. He is 12.

I've been there, and feel for you. We finally had to put my dog down when he was 15. We'd had him since I was 10.

Dang, looks like I missed out. I've been working a lot, so I was pretty much dead on Sunday... another drive at the end of next month correct?

Kristopher - Nice pics on TWR!! I was looking for one with Tinkerbell sitting in the Miata and you had a partial and I cropped it. She wasn't sitting all the way up in her seat, but I think it still gets the point across... she is huge! Do you know the name of her dad?

Sorry to hear it . I also missed a drive last year because my dog was sick. He is also 12 and I worry about him too.

Yeah, lunch doesn't usually take that long. Between the wind blowing out or cooling the grill, and then the rain for about 15 minutes, things just didn't cook as quickly as I expected. I guess it's time to make another sacrifice to kokopeli.

We may have to bring a few more grills along if you keep getting that kind of turnout.

I am truly sorry to have missed this drive. I was really looking forward to it. Things are looking up, however, so the drive in July is looking good. The pictures are great, everyone did a great job there.

Yeah, I've already been eyeing the new coleman tailgater. It's actually smaller than my current grill with more space to cook.

Bump for Jethro Tull.... I got to meet him last night in Oak Harbor and told him about our drives on Whidbey.

I also got to stop ON Deception Pass Bridge on my way home and took some pics. If they turned out ok, it was starting to get dark out, I'll post them later today when I have more time.

Oh hey... FYI... The lookout spot where we always stop to take pics just before the bridge on the north side... it is totally blocked off with jersey barriers - they are putting in new rock posts along the side of the road. I'm hoping they will be done by June, but I bet they're getting ready for tourist season.

If not, we'll have to figure something else out.
