First off, Marc, I deserve zero credit for organizing the cabin. That is all
Mk1 Mark's planning.

Today I made it back to Philly from Vermont in the bunny truck in pretty
good time. I Drove all 375 miles in 6 hours and 40 minutes without stopping
once! 30 MPG and the 13.3 gallon tank sure have a lot more range then the
California Edition did coming cross country....

Thanks to Sara for organizing WBW 2005! It was great as usual!

Thanks to Jason A. & the Arms Family Compound for warming up my frozen solid
Bunny Truck!

Thanks to Mk1 Mark for hooking us up with the cabin, and for dragging the
always entertaining poo pile up from Ohio! ;-)

Thanks to Montréal Marc for finally showing up to an event! ;-)

Thanks to Anson for getting the annually mandated police attention that I
received last year!

Thanks to the TMB & the other Toronto folks for coming!

Thanks to that shitty diner in downtown Burlington for getting me sick!

Thanks to Montréal Paulie for being so consistent! (never, ever showing up
for anything, ever)

Thanks to the Burlington, VT Hobos for leaving me alone this year!

Enough thank yous, here are the pics:

I'd like to say thank you everyone who made the trip out! Sorry I was barfing all weekend, but I still enjoyed myself! Somehow scirocco events have a way of making us feel better!
So, thanks again for coming up (and coming down for some)... it was fantastic and I can't wait to plan it all over again!!!

I am back from Burlington VT. First I have to give a big thank you to Jason
and Sara for being such great hosts.

Also thanks to Marc G and Mark for organizing the Cottage and everything
else.

To the Toronto guys, Jason, Paul, and the third which I can't remember his
name, but who almost rammed my A4 with Anson's twin.

Big thanks to Anson who brought his twin monster, which is such a crowd
magnet (two motors??).

Saturday we had fun just drifting like madmen all afternoon on lake
Champlain.

Here is a preview picture taken by Paul from the Toronto guys:

We pushed Anson's twin a few times. To get him out of a ditch, to get the
car started etc...

Some local girls got stuck on Lake Camplain in a japanese enono box, which
we circled like indians for 10 minutes in our three quatros and durocco. We
are nice guys so we gave them a push as well so they could drive back to
shore.
Sunday was a timed event where Anson, Jason and Mark had fun ice racing with 
the local guys.

The cottage was really nice, and we really had a great time! Can't wait for
next year!

Cheers.
