The weekend was fairly down-beat, relaxed. Somewhat frustrating in that way but not without some fun.
Friday night was pretty quiet. Spent it at home dorking around with the BMW and a few cans of Plasti-Dip. The hood of my car is now bears a rubber coating. Woot. Or something.
Saturday I woke up early enough to drive the BMW up to Alice's for breakfast with a friend, then scooted over to the Canepa Design open house in Scott's Valley. That was a fun walking tour of automotive history and greatness. Very much a good thing! After that just hung out with friends, dorked around cars and then headed home around 10pm in the evening.
A few photos from Canepa - First, some Porsche 959s. Is you know what these are then you know why it's significant that there are four of them in this shop being worked on. It's also significant to note that apart from these four currently being worked on there were at least four other 959s at Canepa, a not insignificant number of the 337 of these that Porsche built.
Next, a panno of one of the other large portions of the Canepa garages. There's a lot of very expensive inventory in this room. Race cars, cobaras, two BMW M1s, some customs, a couple of Lambos, a Bugatti Veyron...And they just let you wander around all of it, as close as you like. Such a good day.
Sunday was spent at home cleaning. Sweeping floors (my roommate sheds like a dog, it's a bit crazy), picking up and mopping the kitchen, laundry and picking up around my room. I also finished off the box of shiraz that had been lurking on my kitchen counter as it was nearing the end of it's useful life.
So yeah, generally speaking, it was a pretty down beat and casual weekend. Not great, not bad. It just was.
