It was a beautiful day for a road trip! About as clear as it gets here on the east coast and much appreciated sunshine after all the rains and floods of the past weeks.


The group at West Point, croissants consumed and ready to go.

First stop Battle Monument

Top of Bear Mountain, so clear you can easily see the Manhattan skyline over 40 miles away!

Photo op along the Hudson. Recent flood debris in foreground. Entrance required Tesla brochure bribe payments at two barricaded points!

Your reserved seat across the table next to Anne appeared empty to the unaided eye. :wink:

Since there's apparently no thread for "pictures of people in Teslas with Tesla tattoos taking pictures of other peoples' Teslas", I'll just post this one here. The Roadster in the mirror is Don's, on the drive yesterday!

Thanks to everyone who made this such a fun day, it was a great pleasure to meet all the drivers and passengers, not to mention picking Don and MPT's brains for their vast EV knowledge!

Or maybe put it in the "Pictures Taken From Teslas by Tesla Owners Taking Pictures of Other Teslas While Showing Tattoos" thread?

(nice pic!)

It has been said that's when a brand has made it.

Contrast to the recent overcast LA Rally! The owners in California need a refund on their overinflated real estate prices...

Did I mention that I really like living in California?

We are filled with fear at the thought of the ground moving beneath our feet!

So how did August 23rd work out for all of you?

So how did August 23rd work out for all of you?

Oh, as I recall it was quite the event! People frantically calling each other to see if they were OK and if they had actually felt anything.

As fate would have it we were in Myrtle Beach, SC enjoying the sun, sand and surf, causal contemplating the likelihood of the strengthening Irene actually heading up the coast and shortening our stay.

It was a beautiful day!
And Christy and Kara brought cool grey Tesla hats for all of us-- I only just noticed today that they have embroidered on the side "New York Road Rally 2011"!
