Dream Cruise

 Every summer about a million people and 40,000 cars show up in Michigan to relive our youth and cruise Woodward Ave like we did as teenagers. We setup lawn chairs on the side of the road and just enjoy the rolling car show.

People bring anything and everything you can imagine.






This was my first car when I was 15, a red 64 Corvair convertible.

Mclaren is near the top of my dream car list, someday...

NSXPO2021

 Finally some cars stuff, what we actually took the trip for.

The first two days were a track event at Oregon Raceway Park, southeast of the Dalles on the Columbia River.







I think this is my all-time favorite photo of my car, nothing staged, just shot while we were moving the cars around for a drone shot at an air museum where we had a dinner.
Group photo at the track even.


We had almost the entire resort where we stayed south of Portland so it was NSXs wherever you looked.


NSXPO21 - more waterfalls

 





We did a long scenic drive around Mt Hood and never saw it because of low clouds. Later in the day we were heading back to the hotel, came around a corner and BAM, we could actually see the mountain.



Some random people that just happened to end up in my waterfall photos.



NSXPO21 - Columbia River Gorge

 We headed west from Yellowstone to one of my favorite places in the world with more cool waterfalls than you can imagine.

Multnomah Falls











NSXPO21 - more Yellowstone

 



We were staying outside the park in West Yellowstone. After dinner one night we drove back into the park and instead of the crowds and traffic jams it was pretty quiet and much nicer to tour without the crowds of people.



The Grand Prismatic Spring was amazing at sunset.

more Key West

  In addition to the sunset cruise we took a snorkeling and kayaking cruise. Of course it was took windy to snorkel but we did get to kayak....
