Ummm Tom, I don't believe you will ever grow up. And that's a good thing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
Important: this trip will fulfill a personal goal and will, more importantly, honor the Porsche 914. Moreover, the fact that the 914 is all grown up with its featured status at one of the worlds most prestigious automobile events. I want to meet you and your 914 along the way. I want to document the adventure and... your adventure with your 914. If you're along the route, I'd like to hook up and talk 914 with you. Let's get this party started. Here's the dates: March 7th - Corona Del Mar Beach - Beach Party! From sea to shining sea send off. Stay tuned for details! March 8th - Anaheim. SoCal all Porsche Swap and Car Show. Phoenix Club. March 8th - Las Vegas, NV - Dinner March 9th - Flagstaff, AZ - Lunch March 9th - Albuquerque, NM - Dinner. Turtle Mountain? Jon, should I bring a guitar? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) March 10th - Amarillo, TX - Lunch March 10th - Dallas, TX - Dinner March 11th - Shreveport, LA - Lunch March 11th - New Orleans, LA - Dinner March 12th - Mobile, AL - Lunch March 12th - Live Oak, FL - Dinner March 13th - Jacksonville, FL - Lunch March 13th - Amelia Island, FL - "We Made It" (hopefully) Party! Looking to do another Beach Party this afternoon/evending. |

What route are you taking from SLC to LA......if you go through Sacramento let me know.....I'll buy you dinner, beer, or lunch, beer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)
So are you doing this trip alone, or do you have a passenger? If I could take the time off it would be an awesome trip, my son lives in Albuquerque and my daughter lives between Dallas and Shreveport! Next year I'll drive to Texas and back again....should have the car back on the road by then. Have fun Eric.....sounds like a great adventure. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Jeff |

No... I may have it meet me in Hershey though. Weather over the Rockies can be quite challenging in April.
And... It's just a hunch but, I believe there's a ice age coming for the northeast and there might be a glacier in the parking lot at Hershey this year. |

Aren't you an ex-Michigander like me? I'm in Dallas and could meet up with you in the DFW area. Dinner would work if you're still on schedule. Maybe a quick tour of Dealey Plaza (where JFK was assassinated)?
