Wow absolutely phenomenal! Well done Jay. It was a great pleasure going through all these photos. Hope it inspires one of the southern board members to do something like that around here! Although I suspect very few of us have the connections to pull something like this off - I couldn't do it.

The Press Hotel, wining dining and driving - all on the house - not a bad gig.
P.S. Not thrilled with the rear end of the C-Coupe...at least from what little I saw.

They're still here. Talk about junkets. Not only do I think that MB has been here since the day after the Lobster Run, which ended last Sunday, but having just left there not 45 minutes ago, they're still there.

Problem with the rear end of the C-Coupe is that they kept the same roof as the sedan. That makes it hard to have a sleek back.

I invite you (just not putting you up in The Press Hotel and paying for all your meals. Maybe one of them ). I even have an extra 2016 Jaguar Lobster Run t-shirt left (designed by yours truly but paid for, entirely, by Continental Tire) - only in Large, if that works for you - which I would be happy to send you, just PM me your address and I will pop it on the mail on Monday.

Final tally for the Lobster Run.
We arrived home late last night from our "Marvelous Adventure" driving to the Lobster Run and an extended vacation along the way. Here is the final tally for our drive: 25 days traveling, visited 22 states, 6084 miles, 29.0 mpg average for the entire trip, and still married. Anyone want to know if the Performance Seats are comfortable or the trunk is big enough for an extended trip? Also, I found ethanol-free premium in Rapid City, SD, at a Mobil station by chance. Didn't see a single F-Type along the way, except the other Lobster Runners, but we mostly avoided the big cities.

Thanks again for coming and it was a genuine pleasure meeting you (and thank you again for your splendid book of poetry).

Wait! Come back! You forgot your book of prose by Robert Gibbons. Let me know when you plan to be here and I'll come outside my office to hand it to you. We can go to Scales that night for dinner (no police escort needed).

DJS, we ran out of time; we had to be home on Saturday. So from Rapid City we took the short way home via Torrington, Cheyenne, and the Front Range.

While On The Subject of Robert Gibbons...
He just left my office bestowing me with a gift, shortly before he and his beautiful wife Kathleen leave Portland for Denver...and not in an F-Type and, one assumes, for good. I/we will miss them dearly.
He's headed your way Matt...something to keep in mind going forth(?). You will not find a more talented or interesting person than Robert Gibbons. But, you probably know that already.

We'll be expecting your book report. The good news is, now you have an excuse to go on the Rocky Mountain Oyster Run.
