    Sun Valley in the 70's. I think it's time for another visit next Summer.
    A busy Saturday on Petit Lake. 1 boat. In the 3 or 4 Summers Martha and I waterskied with this crew we only saw one other boat once on the lake Friday through Sunday. The waterskiers are Mark Mickelson and Gary Ashurst. I think Gary is still there. Not sure about Mark.
    I built a duplex. 2 bedrooms up and 1 down across from the Warm Springs ski run. 58K. You can hardly buy a nice 912 for that now.

    This event looks like a good excuse to go. Maybe next year?
    Maybe 130 to 135?

    I received my new vintage plates today. Kind of a tribute to Jeff Trask. I miss him. I figured it would be a big hit here.

    I tried to keep up with him on a tight twisty road. I could reel him in on the straits. Once it got tight, he was gone. Notice his driving shoes, or the lack of shoes. Having grown up at the beach, I still drive barefoot a lot.

    I put the pop back into the hood release. I have 3 springs and they’re all tired. So I doubled up. I need to get a new stronger spring.

    Sent a load of cars to Rennsport Sunday. We pick them up at the local Porsche dealership today.

    I've got a couple days of cleaning to do. It rained almost all the way back to Colorado via, SLC, Steamboat, to Denver.
    A couple pictures at the end of page 1 and the start of page 2.

    I spent 30 minutes on the phone with Chuck at Elephant. We discussed new suspension parts for a 69 POLO I'm building for a friend. I'll put in the order today or tomorrow. 15K. New wire harness from YnZ, custom gauges from John Bell, etc. It never seems to end. But the car will be awesome.
