Sorry Kristopher, the love fest continues with one more post...

And I also think there has been a lot of good discussion and learning from this last drive. It's great to get everyone's perspective. All it can do is make it better each time. But we always have a great time and have had no accidents or tickets (knock on wood, knock on wood, knock on wood ).

I loved trying to keep up with the vette , although I prolly shouldn't have in some cases - like the 100mph stretch, although that was really fun... The Subie was on my tail most of the time, so eventually I let them get past me. Don't know if you noticed in a few pics - we were behind a silver Jetta for a while. We were cracking up because the license plate was "EXCITER" or something like that. I think Revlis took a pic just for grins. Needless to say, it wasn't too exciting to drive behind it .

Yeah, I saw the Jetta in the pics. Don't you know that you're supposed to run all the stop signs and lights when following someone? That way you can't get separated. bad joke. Just after I got my license I was trying to follow my mom from one place I'd never been to another place I'd never been. There was a gap and she took it. I waited for another gap, and lost her on the freeway, and then received a very stern talking to over the cell phone (while driving on the freeway by myself for the first time) about keeping up when following. Needless to say, that's one lecture (one of many at that age) I promptly round filed. But I digress.
