Registered for that EuroSunday "500 Miglia" 2 day affair. So far, only 16 people will be going. It is scheduled for the 12th and 13th of October, and starts in Portola Valley and heads down to San Luis Obispo, then comes back up the next day ending in Livermore. Should be an awesome trip in the XJ6. And if not, I have AAA, and Allstate roadside assistance, so I can't lose. LOL. Will take my camera and laptop so I can get good pics of the trip, and upload them to Photobucket.

Yes indeed, it should be a nice relaxing two days. I can hardly wait. I would love to take the black Jag, but don't think it will be ready in time.

I knew working seven days a week for three months would take its toll on you. Hopefully the large paychecks will make it worth it, or at the very least, bearable.

Picked up a 2014 Fusion Titanium Energi plug in hybrid. I bought it so I can go in the carpool lane to my new job in Santa Clara. 101 is a nightmare.
