Julie made it home

Man. 5 am I rolled in to the drive way. AHHHHHH my bed! Now awake after a 
few hours sleep and a cup of coffee, the "After Cincy" depression sets in. 
Back to normal life.

There were sooo many people I wish I had more time to talk too and cars to 
check out for ideas. Now I can place faces to your sigs again! (That will 
fade till its time to meet you all again next year  :)

I will admit that that post Cincy Drive was a blast! Thats not what I was 
admitting too. I missed a corner and JUST barely averted harvesting corn 
with the front of the car. Amazing what a millisecond lapse of concentration 
can do.... Can we do that drive again?

The caravan back was a buzz! Only one problem truck and a few a**holes, but 
we all blew down the road (with only one minor tech procedure at a rest 
stop). A great dinner and lots of laughs later dropped Cath and the GWN crew 
off in Buffalo, then Lothar (Andy and Alex) got off in Rochester.
Alone, I finished the last 4 hours to get home. (That does include a short 
nap in a rest area, man I was begginning to drop off. Scary)

My car ran perfectly the whole time (which was a nice touch) and a 2L in a 
MKI is nice. Flitting through traffic, more than enough power to spare even 
at 80, to jump when called. My god, I think I am having a love affair with 
my car!
"Float like a butterfly and sting like a bee" is the best quote I can think 
of.
