Rick and I worked it out so I could pick up today.
Beautiful day to become a first time Porsche owner, a dream I have had for years. The mountain of parts along with a well sorted car made for a great start (whale tail included but not in pic). My Tundra was filled and my wife had a tough time keeping up with me on our maiden trip from Richmond to Cville.
After I was settled in at my house, I checked the oil and tires, filled the tank and took a spirited yet careful drive through the hills of west Albemarle County. It was a dream is all I can say, a dream ride.
Then back in town, a quick trip to the office (the sound in my parking garage is heaven) and then the grocery store with wife, 5 small bags of groceries in the front no problem.
My 911 is covered now and resting.
Many great adventures to follow....!

Can you pick the chapter you want to be in? I thought it was solely based on where you live.
