    Watt great pictures. Tell me, was the dog allowed back into the car without first receiving a bath?

    you're kidding right? he takes his own baths as we go, none of our dogs have ever been given a bath in their lives.  the best is when he's wet, rolls in the dirt, then shakes in the car.  quite messy, but it all washes off.
     IN THE BEGINNING THE TRUCK WAS CLEAN

    IN THE END IT LOOKED LIKE SUN, dirty as hell  $60 special cleaning fee, not too bad, the 991, just tipped the guys $15 on the wash, and waxed before i went.

    First of all, many thanks Watt for the fantastic photos of the car - but most of all of the scenery and of Chance..kiss

    Sorry to say that I've never let my dog, who is an integral part of our family, enter my P-car on the basis that he would probably ruin the leather interior.  You have changed my mind and he will get his first P-car outing this week-end.  

    What the hell - there's obviously more to life than I previously thought feasible.!

    in the hole, or jackson valley, it was really hot 84-90 F that week, on the river you need a shirt its in the 50's or 60's it creates its own weather.  the river is cold but dips feel good.  During the storm that produced the rainbows, it feel to 50 F, and we had a fire in the fireplace....   winter always

    when you're up at 10,000 feet like this on the Granite Highline Trail, its 70's.  i never wore a shirt  hiking in the 8,000-11,000 elevation range. [but watched the weather carefully]

     

    Ok.. so it is pretty much similar to our mountains . I actually love walking during a nice summer day at high altitudes .

    Re: carrera s cab life - Sun runs to jackson again

    No prob John, have fun with your dog, they love going places in cars and really don't care whether it's a Porsche or fFerrari as long as they're with you!:)

    Gnil,

    we had the best time hiking those mountains north of ascona two years ago! (and blasting around Suisse and italie in a BMW 550i x)

    fritz!!!  neither of us recall the incident....  perhaps you are kidding me?  but if you saw the exterior condition of his high school bmw 335d, your point is made:)  and i'd forgive him anyway given his performance at school!:)

    No, not kidding. Just remembered you wrote on here in our early days here that your young son had got behind the wheel of one of your sports cars in the garage and run it into the back wall. Just stuck in my mind because I admired  how relaxed you were about it, in spite of the car being a GT3 or 360, or similar...........?  Smiley
