This was a great drive,with the largest turnout we've had yet (18 people in 10 cars). With the way we split up at the end, I didn't have a chance to thank each of you for coming out and sharing the day with us. Especially Ken, who drove all the way up from Plymouth and unfortunately suffered a valet-inflicted bumper injury. (I guess they don't call them Dodge "Rams" for nothing, ugh!).

Here's the first shot, heading up to the mountains on 93...

Weather was like this all day, although it turned much warmer and we did see a little bit of sun...

Sabbaday falls was a great diversion...just about a half hour walk in some really nice unique waterfalls.

It was wonderful to finally travel the White Mts with you, and what a marvelous turnout for GBBG. And Rob's suggestion for the route were excellent -- especially Rt 116 -- do you think that was paved just for us? It sure seemed like a Boxster-specific road.

Ken, I hope the flesh wound will not inhibit your accompanying us again -- it's a given that ALL of us feel your pain.

Excellent pictures, used to go to NH as a young kid. Beautiful scenery and great bunch of Boxsters you have there.

I did have a good trip in spite of the little mishap. :ah: Thanks to everyone for the words of encouragement.

I will keep everyone posted on what becomes of the whole incident as well the repair. Besides the bumper cover and the tail light I did find some damage to the rim also so I did sent a letter to the general manager of the hotel this afternoon concerning the incident, the areas of damage and inquired into how they were planning on resolving the issue just to make sure they make it a priority.

I really enjoyed the leg stretching on the way home and Rte 116. Looking forward to the next run.

Any idea's for the next location out there?

Ken
