For those that are coming, you will be able to spot me as I will be wearing a black T-Shirt that on the back will say "Goat Locker". I think that should be fairly unique. So, you will be able to spot me.

Along these same lines, lets all park on the far side of the parking lot from Kohl's near where you enter the parking lot. I will get there early, so, be looking for my BRG X-Type.

I'll be early, but not being all that familiar with the area, I'll be a bit clueless. Naturally a Platnium 2005 STR with tinted windows. I'll have on black shoes, sox, short and a white shirt with black stripes, boxed.

Doc... I'll be looking for the GOAT shirt and 03 X-Type

There was a bunch of us there. Had 12 cars there at one time. Got to put a lot of faces to names and talked a lot of shop. Now, to make the dishwasher clean things. LMAO.

Pictures will be coming soon.

We were so tired this morning, we left southern Maryland at 9:30 and somehow didn't make it home til after 2, granted we were traveling with teens and a baby and apparently very small bladders and I seem to have left all my patience in Northwest Pennsylvania.

Hoping to catch the next G2G--or at least one that falls after the 7th of August.


BTW in our 1000 mile, 48 hour excursion, the Jag averaged 27mpg.

Roger that Norri. I left late but made better than excellent time getting there. It wasn't really that far only about 29 Miles. I'll get my Pictures up later today. All of the people were really nice. Had a blast.

All, we had a great time. Enjoyed meeting all of you. The range of cars was fantastic. Brunch was great, but just too much good food. We will have to do it again.

Oh, on a bad note, about half way home I think the electric fuel pump gave out. So we came home on the "hook" so to speak.

That sucks. At least that beauty looks just as good on a flat bed as driving. What part of I 66 is that. Next time ill share some contact info and if something happens again ill come pick you up so you dont have to ride with the tow truck.

Was great to meet everyone, and awesome to see so many jags at cars and coffee. Cant wait for chris to set this all up again, was a great time.

You guys will have to excuse the quality of the photographs. I had my really expensive camera with me but..... .forgot the battery pack. These aren't too bad for being taken with a Motorola XOOM Tablet....

Never a good time when the car lets you down on an outing. I guess you could look at it this way it is one less thing to let you down the next time. I enjoyed meeting you and having an opportunity to see your car.
