Thanks again Tedster, it'll be tough to top this weekend.

HAHAHA! I had to stop to get some gas before the border. The place was full service.

The lady was confused when I said: "I don't know, does ten liters sound good?" and she was like "okaaaay..." It was like I spent $12 on nothing. lol.

BTW, I'm back at the shop, changing my oil. Gonna try out that Shellbourne stuff.

So I made it home into the garage fine, right? Yes, no worries, and I took the car through some real remote ass country east of Lake Huron, the kind of landscape that makes you shudder to think about breaking down in, not to mention no cell service for Verizon. Anyway, the first time I get in the car to drive it since the trip, I turn it over, and hear a slap-slap-slap! WTH? We look under the hood to find the water pump took a complete dump, smacking the fan all up against the radiator. I mean wobble city, but no fluid leak. Crazy, the car made it home for me - then broke! That's a real loyal and devoted car right there, folks! I am so happy it didn't break on the road I almost don't care that I have to buy some parts and go to work!

Wow, great trip so far. Friday-Monday in Oakville. Great friends. Good times. Thanks to Ted and Dave (awesome accommodation!)

We drove north to Sudbury and then west to Marquette, MI. Spent the night at Trey's (more great accommodation!) Worked on the three e28s.

A few pics from the trip. First one just east of Iron Bridge, Ontario. Second somewhere in the UP. 27.5mpg so far.

Sorry guys. Webshots is taking longer than I thought and I had to prep the Alpina for a car show this Sunday. I also have to downsize 149 pics so I can post them on MyE28.com. I'll have the review of Tedfest 2012 up by Saturday midnight. ;)
