Starting to see them much more frequently. P85 Blue/Tan in front of me at my kid's drop-off at school -- Encinitas Blvd and RSF in Encinitas. Couldn't help notice all the morning greeters and children staring at it. It's an awesome color combo. Making me regret my decision to defer.

Shooting fish in barrel.
Two S in a delivery caravan on the 405 at Santa Monica exit.

Tucked between them

And later in front of Whole Foods. Mom and two girls getting in.

Spotted a sig on 280 North at the Sixth St. exit heading into San Francisco on my way to work today...in almost the exact same spot and time I saw a Founder's car the other day. Loved the plate on this one (it may be hard to see in the pic): "2 AMPED." Is that any of you guys?
had my first true "in the wild" sighting this morning (and from my S even!).
In fairfax, on the fairfax county parkway headed south (I was stopped at a red light at franklin farm specifically), saw a leaf cross in front of me going eastbound, thought to myself, "hey, nice to see other electrics around now and again", and then immediately after that, saw a dark colored model S going westbound. Phone was in my pocket, so didn't snag a picture

That could have been me! I cross the parkway on Franklin Farm road heading west on my way to work. This morning it would have been about 8:50am, give or take a few minutes.
On Monday, Richard M was driving behind me in his model S on Franklin Farm Road, and we both pulled off to have a short chat! That was my first sighting.
I have just finished day 7 in the car. It's still awesome!

8:50 sounds right. I drop the kids at the bus at 8:45. I bet that was you again this morning. I was going through that light and saw you (possibly) stopped at the light. (Mine is white for the record). Its great how the model s is instantly recognizable.
My first time charging outside of home (besides the garage where my car spent the first two days/nights getting paint armor installed).
My car turns 1 month tomorrow. This is at the 99 Restaurant in Marlboro, MA (note: the Hudson, MA location does not have a charger!).
Note to self: Bring wallet (where chargepoint card is) and keep second chargepoint card in car. I had to make 2 phone calls, one to release the nozzle and one to enable
charging. Charging was free here. The other car also had an EV plate in the 1000's - but no front plate! Never saw the driver (does (s)he work at an office nearby?)

Found a Black Model S coming up fast in my rear view on the 210 E just north of Pasadena. Looked brand new, no plates. Blew by me at 75, driver was singing at the top of his lungs. Made me laugh.
