Default Dead around here, so a little pic whoring (BWW) of a drive up to Muskoka last month.

Had a few business associates at the cottage last month. The convoy driving up -
fastest car at the front, of course - was me in my S4, a C5 Vette ragtop, a 993 Carrera 4 (maybe just a 2) ragtop,
a 997 TT and a Boxster S. I took them up Muskoka 13. Unfortunately part of the road is under construction and it was dusk
so we didn't get a chance to really push.


Drove up in front of this guy...

...whatever your opinions may be of the car, this exhaust sounds great.

He did slow this guy down on Muskoka 13 a bit.

Got to fly around in one of these. (Jet Jockey, quick - I want complete stats on this plane!)

Incredible that it was built in 1959...it had a metal stamp on it from Colombia. We tried to
snort the seats, but we were out of luck.

Supposedly this is supposed to be Kurt Russell's and Goldie Hawn's cottage

No guns for target practice

Back to home base. (Thanks for the comment, Tanner)

Amazing how these planes can get airborne in such a short distance.

Life is good.

Default Looks like the water is flowing pretty good at Bala

Was there last year, much lower.

No. Goldie's place is on Lake Joseph, (or Rosseau). This is on Lake Muskoka
