In fact, I think I need to go somewhere right now! Not sure where yet. See you later.

Re: Boxster's Here!
Hi GM Austin -
Is that Westlake Hills or some such area? We are thinking of moving to Austin from Shanghai, and that picture certainly makes a pretty good case. I have already visited Roger Beasley Porsche online at least 10 times.
How are the driving roads?
Enjoy!

Close to Westlake Hills, but north of the river. I am on top of Shepherd Mountain here, just north of the Loop 360 bridge. At the base of this hill is an office park, Bridgepoint, you may have heard of that. I'm not sure now, but a few years ago that office park had the highest rental rates in the city. Do you think that had anything to do with the view?
Austin is a wonderful place to live. I love it here. I moved here from Houston about 26 years ago. Lots of great driving roads to the west of Austin, in the hills. The local Porsche club is very active and they take some interesting tours through the hills. Boxstoberfest was held near here recently, in Fredericksburg, and they had a 4 hour driving tour through the hill country that was just spectacular.

Hi GM Austin -
Yes I suspect the view did have something to do with that. Would be a great life with nice people and great food. I seem to recall The Salt Lick out towards Dripping Springs had some fine brisket. I hope BBQ sauce comes off of Porsche steering wheels.
Are there any nearby tracks? I read about two in Dallas - but nothing seemed near by. It's not a deciding factor, but would be nice.
Thanks for the reply.
Best,

Re: Boxster's Here!
No nearby tracks, unfortunately. The local Porsche club has their DE at Motorsport Ranch, just south of Fort Worth. That's a nice, safe track. I went to the last DE and liked it a lot.
