Default Left Coast Update

I put photo's in the album and every body is having a blast and very few problems other than hotels .
No tickets yet but 1 park ranger and a hotel security guy made us move .
Dinner was great , Cars have been even greater pretty bug covered right now , We are doing the 17 mile drive in the morning and my wife is telling me to get in bed so I better go , It could be a long drive home if I dont

Updated album with a few more pics.

Put a few pictures from today's run in my album.

It was a very good time, especially the guy standing behind his Corvette at a turn out south of Big Sur. The turn out was on the right, just before a hairpin left We were about the fifth car in line when we passed him standing there with his mouth open, staring at all of us. I think he wants a new car.

Thanks to all who made this a great run.

Nancy and I had a great time on the trip and meeting such nice people. There are some pics that I uploaded in my album. We are looking forward to the next gathering.

I don't think anyone had anything but a great time but then, not being able to drive your Crossfire would make the day drab :wink:

We caused more than one person to head to the nearest Chrysler dealer. In fact, I think more people wanted to see our cars than the cars at the Good Guys show in San Luis Obispo.

You know, a big KUDOS to everyone who was involved with the West Coast Hookup. What a blast! All of you were so wonderful and the comraderie amongst the Crossfire Team was just amazing. Thank you very much for allowing me to be a part of it all.

Gotta keep it short, I've posted a few pics on my site for viewing...

Hi Cgates...I guess you're somehow mistaking me for Tdancer... ;-) I had a total of 1000 miles more fun on "Blaze" by the time I put her back in the Garage on Sunday morning somewhere around 3 am ;-) Then a few precious hours of sleep and I was at the airport opening the hangar doors @ 8am .

But you are definitely right about the fortunes of local Chrysler dealers....I am sure there are a few more sales pending now.

We'll have to give Sunny9850 and Tdancer the award for the longest in the car, LA->Monterey->LA. This just shows that this was the hookup to attend...

I hope to see everyone in Vegas this Sept, my oldest daughter is saying no, something about it being her birthday. :wink:

And... I had the BEST time. It was definitely worth all the travelling I had to do to get there. Next year I will find a way to bring my car out - I could hear her crying from the garage all the way across the country.

My thanks to Sunny for letting me chill in his ride for upwards of 12 hours - I guess I'm not as annoying as I thought...

Pictures to follow shortly - as soon as my boss gives me a moment to breath!

Does that mean you don't want to ride with me next year.....man my driving must be worse than I thought ;-)

At any rate it was my pleasure to have you ride with me :-) And if you can't strap one of your projects on the back of the black one and jet out for the next Hook-Up let me know.

:shock: Yikes!!! I didn't realize you were going to San Diego in all this! Just got home last night?? Wow - you really did do a lot more driving than we imagined. It was so nice meeting you guys. I think a Colorado trip will have to be in order one of these times for sure (but not in the winter :wink: ).
Glad you made it home safely. Do you know how many miles you traveled in total? Did you see any other XF's?
