Loved your photos. Washington is truly a lovely place - I went to school there for 3 years and I could never fault the beauty of the state.

About 20 years ago I lived in Incline Village in NV and needed to drive my son to school in Reno every day (he was in a special school - it was a really good school!. He's probably an adult juvenile delinquent now, but not then).

Anyway, I used to drive our Carrera 4 up and down Mt. Rose Highway every day to get him to school and it was such a dream of a drive. It was the first time I owned a Porsche and I was stunned that people would literally pull over for me on Mt. Rose and let me go by. I wasn't being aggressive or following them too closely - it was just a situation where they would just get out of my way.

When I get asked why I drive a Porsche (Boxer) now, I just say I got used to a nice car.
