Ralphie made a new friend!! Chip and Rich swap vehicles for part of the cruise... We had fun following Barry until he kicked up a stone that found Ralphie's windshield. But as usual, that didn't dampen Ralphie's spirits! At the Valle Vista Country Club for a nice lunch.

Ralphie and I stopped by Navajo Bridge on the way to dropping me off at the South Rim to pick up my car. He was having a lot of fun trying out his new camera. :biggrin One last picture at sunset of the south rim. Ralphie went on to Williams and I stayed behind for a few hours at the South...

I finally made it to the last water stop by the Supai Tunnel, 1400' and 2 miles from the top. I wondered if Ralphie was up there somewhere... This is a view from the Coconino Overlook. Only 400' left! (I had just dumped a liter of water over my head 10 minutes ago and it was already dry...

After a few more miles, I hiked up to Cottonwood campground and met a few crazy (and nice looking) trail runners who were doing the rim-to-rim-to-rim!! For the rest of the hike, they would pass me and then I'd catch up when they were taking a break. So much fun to make friends at the bottom of...

Once I exited the wall, the canyon opened up and was surprisingly green! Due to the low rainfall, Ribbon Falls was little more than a dribble of water coming down over the moss covered rock, but was still one of the canyon's treasures. -MJ

As Ralphie mentioned, I drove from Grand Junction down to the South Rim to get in a little rim to rim power hike in the morning before meeting up with Ralphie to finish the drive down to Kingman. This was Chip's fault as I had the bug ever since he posted of his trip to Phantom Ranch with...

Congrats Mark! Have fun trying to catch up to Jeff and Ralphie. :biggrin BTW, is our "most eligible bachelor" going to be in AZ the weekend of the 18th? I hear there's a Boss 302 at the proving grounds that might like to ride with the GTs on the Getaway cruise. hint hint :wink

Piccola is coordinating another fun AZ event with this one, so yes, she will definitely be there! :) I'm looking forward to it Rich!

I'm only about 11 days late... Sounds like you had a great birthday! :) See you in May.

Have a great birthday (and Easter) weekend George!!

Last year I went sailing at sunset by the islands, under the Golden Gate Bridge, etc. Appetizers and drinks were served. It was really beautiful.

Here are a few from my bucket list: Drive a GTX1 – done (thanks Rick!) Drive every (factory) color GT – need to drive yellow and this will be done (are you listening Chip? :biggrin) Climb all 55 of CO’s 14ers – hope to finish this next summer Get married – I never thought this would be the...

Great story and pictures Chip. I'm starting to like Renea more and more! :biggrin What a fun way to get in some exercise and you both obviously enjoyed the trek! :thumbsup I remember a day trip a few years ago of just hiking to the bottom and back up when I was living down there, but I didn't...

I forwarded this to a few GT friends in Atlanta who haven't seen this thread yet, and I'm sure some of them will pass it on to a few other owners who aren't on this forum much. I think several of them might be interested, and it would give me an excuse (like I need one) to fly out there for a...

I'm in Rich! Will drive down from CO to meet up with you guys. Looking forward to it!

What a fun project! For someone who doesn't work on cars, you sure did a great job! :thumbsup

How does the Palos Verdes one compare to Irvine C&C?

Indy is right, he did have a recent mishap in the air with his Glasair's engine. He also did have a Cirrus, but if memory serves, he sold it a short while back.

I hope you get to be up in the air with her again soon! It's sad seeing your Glasair like this, but good to know she's back in AZ and being worked on.

I'd be happy with a grilled cheese sandwich and a glass of wine, but I don't come for the food. I come to catch up with people I haven't seen in a long time and to make new friends. It might have been a tad bit more than I had planned, but if I didn't think it was worth it, I wouldn't go...
