I'm sorry to put it this way, but if you haven't prepaid to attend and we are not expecting you at this point, please don't show up unannounced.

I had so many people back out, that I had to rearrange the finances and the schedule to accommodate the people who were kind enough to sign up on time and pay on time.

James doesn't have a 914. We will have to meet later.

Sandy and I really enjoyed meeting you all. It seemed like at first nothing was going to work out. We got a late stop, then missed the boat trip, then the car would not start, got to Series 9 and the car would not start. Went to dinner (excellent) came back car would not start. Car then started by Sandy due to her not mashing in the clutch and we got home this morning. I have to say a great group of guys and I will be there next year if the creek don't rise (rained all this weekend, LOL) and God wills. I met some interesting people and took a few photos. I will try to add them or email them to someone with more computer literacy. I was the oldest guy there and I even owned a 914 in 1973 which one told me I was an original 914 guy. Anyway looking forward to another event.

Thanks for a great time guys and gals. Had a blast, despite the smaller crowd. Glad that Chad, Steve and I got some driving in. As Joe always says though, these things are less about the cars, and more about the people. What a great 914 family we have... I certainly needed it. Now good luck to Papa Joe and Jenny on welcoming Calusa into it!

Joe was able to take us on a boat trip to Silver Glen due to the smaller crowd this year. It was a 50 mile round trip from Deland along the Saint John's River through Lake George and up Silver Glen.

Stopped for lunch at the Blackwater Inn.

Silver Glen has a fresh water spring that is crystal clear and 72 degrees all year. It felt good on the 85 degree day. You can see 100 feet under water.

Eventually a big rain storm came through. The rain and the air were the same temperature so we did not feel cold at all.

It was a unique and fun trip. You should have been there.

There was no shortage of 914s or car talk.

Joe's shop is stuffed with interesting projects, including some original sixes.

This car has custom made flares and a rotary engine.

Attached Image

There was a 930 turbo and a Karman Gia project.

Attached Image

George brought the Chump Car, still running strong.

Attached Image

This parts car features a chalon kit, but it also has a 915 transmission and a built up 460 small block chevy with a $12K build sheet.

Attached Image

Joe called it the "Borg Car". It has lots of "interesting" modifications done in a hacked up fashion.

Attached Image

Joe is obviously keeping very busy! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)

Next year, rumor has it that George and I will be organizing the Ramble, once again based at Series9!
