A great way to spend the a.m.

Since my brother and I are usually racing against each other, today we decided to make a banzai run for dessert for the weekend. Did a quick surf check, and went into the backcountry and picked up some pies. On the way back, stopped by my buddies place...leg broken in 6 places at a concert we attended last Sunday nite.
Quite enjoyable...not much traffic and got a chance to charge thru some twisty parts!

Glad you didn't go out in the water - saw about half a dozen out at Sunset this afternoon. They'll have a merry bacterial xmas for sure...

Jim,

When are we going to switch lives again? You come live in Texas, and I'll live in Cali.

Fun day!

After looking at the pictures, my only thought was that 911 doesn't look wide enough to be a GT3...

Nothing quite like the early day sun down on the coast. Great pics, looks like you and your brother had a blast. How was the pie?

Yep...what Joe said...work hard, don't get divorced, don't get wrapped up in drugs or other things that take your eye off the prize at the end.
