Yes great time as usual today with the gang. Tracy, glad to help and you and Julie are a great addition to the SoCal'ers. Your car is really coming along nicely. We need to do this more often. Great pics Ang. Lastly, I state for the record that the SS wheels look most biitchen on my car.

Okay, okay,
It was great to get out of the house and mingle with some folks with common interests. It was great to meet up with the gang again and break bread together.
I'm going to have to learn to keep it easy with the clutch and quit squealing the tires in 2nd and 3rd gears. And, I haven't figured out how to use competition mode yet. At least I haven't tried yet.
My new GPS had me take a different route back home. While it had me on the 405 down, on the way back I got off the 405 and drove north on the 710. Had no traffic problems in either direction. My combined MPG for the whole day was at 30.2. The average speed was 53 mph. There were some moments at 90 or so.
I've been trying to figure out how to splice together some pics to make a panoramic of the parking lot shot, but, no joy yet. That's why it has taken so long to post here. I finally gave it up.
Had a nice time down in Long Beach even if I had to drive through rain both down and back.

Thnx all--I love taking pix of this car. It is very photogenic!
I can't believe this new phone's camera lets me take panoramic pix. I'll have to use a higher resolution next time--those are a little fuzzy.
So what's next?

Finally figured it out,
using windows live gallery, the program automatically splices the photos together. Then, all I was left to do was re-size to site limits. Here is my panoramic shot, enjoy.
Here are some of the folks who were there. Could we be talking about another wiper delete clinic?

Hey Mike, Great job and I definitely will need to use a higher res next time I do this (my first time using that feature on my phone).
If possible, may I get a copy of the (original size) group/splice please?
My email: angelita@cal.berkeley.edu
Thanks!

Looks like I missed a great time...sorry I didn't make it. I heard the install was off, and was a little bummed out, so we hung out here, I was hoping to get some work done on the grilles I need to do but no luck. Hopefully soon! Todd (Uma)

Okay the work clinic Dr. was wrong I do not have chicken pox I have viral exanthems which is a virus that causes a rash, which is not contageous. So I missed a great time for nothing! (And 3 days pay)
