Cool pics.
I wish I had a job like yours. Mine, I have to show up every freakin day and sit in the little cubicle......
Cool GTO, I thought they only made a few of those.

Nice pics - reminds me of the road trip I did last summer to Maine. I even went to the same lighthouse in Rockland. I'm originally from Maine so I always enjoy seeing pics of the state. Can't wait to see the rest of them!

Thanks for sharing. Nice that you were able to follow your impulse and just keep driving...many days I wish I could do the same. Reminds me of the Gilligan's Island theme -- "a three hour tour...a three hour tour"!

And good golly what a pair of Ferraris to run into!!

I've seen neither on the road, though I did see a GTO 20 years ago at a car show. God do I love that thing...

And the 360CS is right behind in drool factor -- I was just thinking that might be my pick if I could afford a sub-$200k prancing horse. Looks better than the 430, IMO, and has to be just insane on the track!

Anyway, I also liked that both you and the 360CS had carbon fiber mirrors...

Look forward to seeing more!

Hi Cory,
Glad to see you're having fun!

That plane ride looks like a blast!

Wonder if those seats would fit in the Elise?

If you're back in town this weekend, there's a British Car Show at Ursuline College. Lots of Lotus, Jaguar, MG, Aston Martin, etc. cars on display. It's on Saturday

Be safe

Wayne
