The Rentals have Vacated

The Parental units left today on an afternoon flight. Both my husband and I had a really nice visit with them. On Friday, Rob and my Dad did a PCA track day at Laguna Seca. They had a blast, but apparently two other drivers totaled their cars on the track. Laguna Seca is fun, but with a five story drop on the corkscrew, you really have to watch what you are doing.

Mom and I saw The Golden Compass last night. I thought is was pretty good, although the Chronicle would be to differ. Although I thought it was a kid's movie, it was pretty dark and a little violet. It has one of the most graphic animated polar bear fight scenes ever.

$8 Goes a Long Way

Yesterday we went to the San Francisco International Auto Show. Although I'm not in the market, I always enjoy seeing the new vehicles. If you are thinking of buying a new car, spend the entry fee and go to a car show. In SF the auto show runs through December 2nd. You'll have the opportunity to see and feel every new make and model, with zero sales pressure.

Porsche had a nice presence this year, and had many vehicles for people to sit in, versus previous years. This is a picture of me, sitting in a Cayman wearing the Carrera-Region PCA denim shirt my father gave me. I've posted some additional pictures of the Porsche's, and their new "Hybrid Drive System and engine, along with some non-Porsche car pics.

Gladys apparently has been just a dream and is going to stay at the Inn for the rest of the weekend. She's been getting along well with the other resident Pekes, and the Inn Keeper is already thinking of either Eva or Flora for her new name. The best sign of all that this is not just a visit.

Newsletter Accomplished

The Carrera Region PCA newsletter is completed. Here it is! What I learned is, as much as I love Word; I need to bite the bullet and learn Adobe. BTW, the hubby picked up the 944 today. He says that it's running fab. I guess a Wednesday delivery when it was promised the previous Friday, is right-on-time for Porsche mechanics.

Friday is the opening of Holiday Windows. Don't think I'll be doing any extra curricular activities for the rest of the year. How sad is it when designing a newsletter is something you do in your spare time.
