We are home now. Thanks to all who planned and assisted with another great event! This is the first time in years Sandy and I didn't have either an over whelming amount of work or masters classes we were dealing with during the event. We even took time after to walk through a section of Bryce Canyon with Ed and Jen and drove to Gobin Valley for a photo shoot.

Mike was kind enough to pull the cable out of his green car so I could get home. Sandy posted a photo of me driving through terrifying traffic while trying to shift, slip the clutch, pull the wire, etc.,,
The rest of the trip home was clear sailing.
This is the last trip for the Alien. I've owned the car since 1993. She made her debut as an all Porsche V8 conversion in 2004. Since then I have crossed the US in all directions putting thousands of miles on at a time. It's been a wonderful run with a legendary car.
Next year We will be driving Sandy's Ravenna car and the Raspberry car will be in the shop under going a full tilt resto.
