PCA - The end of a long era for me

Time goes by quickly, I’ve been a continuous PCA member for 30 years this year.
I used to be very active in a large region, autocross, tech stuff, on the board for many years (even though at that time almost everyone else on the board was 30-40 years older than me).
The G body cars had just gone out of production at the time.
But alas, I think this is finally the year I don’t send in the renewal check.
I haven’t had a Porsche for a few years now and don’t see myself ever buying another. I still think the air cooled up to 89 are nice cars, but I’ve had so many 911s (and 914s) that I highly doubt I’d get another. The last 911 I had (88 Carrera) just sat for months at a time. I sold it a few years ago and haven’t missed it.
Porsche hasn’t made any new car that I’ve been interested in for a long time.
I got my first Porsche in 1982 and have had one or more continuously up to 2018. What a wonderful run that was. Did a lot of work on them, including rebuilding an SC engine (in the pre Internet days even) etc.
So kind of sad to be “over it,” it’s not something I really expected (esp. in my 50s), but cheers to Porsche for being an aspiration and inspiration to me for many decades.
