A Life Long Dream . . .

Sunday, February 2nd, 2014

I’ve been a Porsche driver since I was 18, having owned a 914/6, a 912 and a Boxster.  The Boxster was purchased new in December, 1997 (yep, it’s an oldie, just like me).  I’ve always wanted to drive across the country, taking my own sweet time to enjoy the scenery and meet the people and learn about this great country of ours.  That dream will soon become a reality for my husband and me.

People say we are crazy, doing this in a Porsche.  “Why not do it in an RV?”, is the comment we keep hearing.  Well, if you drive a Porsche (or any type of fun car), the answer to that is obvious.  This site will allow us to share this adventure – the planning, the preparation, the travels, the trials, the fun, the photos, the works.

Just so you know, this originally started out as a “Let’s take the northern route from the Bay Area to Boston, timing it so we arrive in October, to experience autumn.  Then we can take the southern route home.”  Well, that has grown into ” . . . and let’s make sure we stop in all 48 states!”

And so the adventure begins . . .
