Great pics Paul. Especially, the rear view mirror one. Excellent, I'll try not to post duplicates but here are some that I got.
By the way, this was a blast and WOW that was not a typical Sunday drive.

So, I figure these Oregon guys are smart and hold their drive when Russian Blue is up in Seattle at the Walker meet. And yet, there he is???? How'd that happen?

Yeah, it was your (and Tim's) job to keep him busy so they could drive in peace. What happened?

No idea which airstrip that was. The building at the end was the St. Josefs winery.

So it seems most people know the guy on the left (Russian Blue with his light blue Carrera in background behind him), middle guy is Peter (my/oregonmon's neighbor who drove his wife's 01 Boxster), and I don't remember the guy on the rights' name (sorry, I did talk with you briefly) he posts here regularly and drives the nice dark blue 993 behind him.

Good meeting a few of you and putting names to faces and having a great drive.
I didn't realize you were there Paul, I would have introduced myself, maybe next month!

Absolutely. What date is the next arrive & drive? Your 964 is freakin' sweet by the way!

Cheers,

Paul.

Paul, I love that pic in the rear view mirror. I remember that stop sign, as I was trying to get a pic too. My brown SC is in the back and Eric Needle (I believe that's his name) with his wife navigating is in front with an slightly newer burgunday colored Carrera who I followed most of the day. He was pretty damn fast. The picture of the 1970 green 911 that has been restored and is powered by a 3.0l engine was behind me on the first half and also kept a good pace.
Seems like the newer cars are driven slower by older folks and the older cars are driven faster by younger people.
