El Diablo rolled up to the front of my house about 5:30 this morning.
I didn't need coffee.
Here are a few shots, and then I'm outta here for a night on the town. Sorry, for the attachments...haven't figured out how to paste directly into the text field.
Pix 1: She finally arrives!!
Pix 2: Fresh out of the truck!! (w/ longer camera exposure) You shoulda heard her when she was fired up in the truck... sounded like a frickn beast ready to break out of her pen!! She had good company from San Diego... two vintage Ferraris, a race prepped Porsche, and a restored '34 Buick.
Pix 3: She joins her stable-mate... my two girls. Sun peeking through some snow-storm clouds... yeah, today was the first snow of the season. It was frickn blustery and COLD this morning. A long way from Bahrain!
Pix 4: Oh, must include my other girl. She was almost as excited as I was this morning. She gets the special treatment tonight...fancy dinner and Chicago Symphony Orchestra.. Diablo's going out on the town!
Pix 5: Yours truly. A sincere thank you to Josh, Bill, Noe, Sean, and of course, Abdulla. And also to the M5Board, without which all of this never would have happened.
Dave
