2017 was the first full year of retirement for my me and my wife. We're totally embracing it and hopefully, 2018 will be more of the same.

The Plan:
Drive the 964 more, sail more, travel more, and most of all, enjoy family and friends more!

Happy New Year to you all!

Why would you want narrower flares - old age catching up to you, bub?! The bigger the better!

Oh, I'll never get old my friend, no worries there. I'm just not a fan of Singer's flare design.

Do a big road trip in the gator, Belgium > South of France, Garda lake, Stelvio pass, Hochbann strasse in the Black Forrest and RTB.

Perhaps Classic Le Mans as well

Order a new BMW 118D, before the production switches to the FWD Sheisse Einzer

Finally get some work done on my house

I am going to be right here writing the doom and gloom while insulting your intelligence just so as I can depress all of you further.

Depress mee? man, you've gone soft over the years.. You're like that crazy old rambling grandpa that everybody knows and finds entertaining.
