The reveal. This was on April 1st and he is still talking about it. The rest of the gift was to tell him that the 2 of us and our 2 cars were going to Parade in Salt Lake City.

Great story!

 

Looking forward to seeing you and your Dad out for a few drives with the club this summer!

 

All the best to you and the family.

Rob,

That is one awesome story. I'm going to forward this to my daughters. Might still be a little young, but you set a great example for them to aspire to a little later in life.

HA! YEah well leaving me feeling like a bit of a schmuck because it's my mom's 65 birthday this weekend and I have nothing even remotely this grand planned!

Keith, it's not too late! I believe this car is local, and may still be available. Your Mom will dig it, and you'll be in her good books all the way through Mother's Day.

Call tonight and work out the deal. If you need help picking it up tomorrow, give me a call. I'd be glad to help you drive it home, or over to your Mom's, or to Vancouver and back. Whatever, I'm there for you buddy!

Hi Rob (et al the Cambells")

 

Wonderful story and great pictures. That one will be tough to top .. for certain.

 

Perhaps you can find a matching Boxster for your Mom too? :p

 

cheers!
