Default First Tour

Just got back from our first tour with the local Corvette Club today. Got our first Vette 3 months ago and joined the club which is very active.

It was really fun watching people of all ages watching us (12 Vettes) as we cruised around the Tacoma area this afternoon...the cars we drive are almost universally admired by young and old alike.

Afterwards, most of us went to a pizza place and hung out for a couple of hours talking cars and eating great food...

Amazing how one car can bring together so many people from so many backgrounds into genuine friendships. If you own a Vette and are not part of a Corvette Club, you're missing out on a lot of the fun of having one.
