After a lengthy rain on Saturday, I was a bit surprised that Sweet Berry’s grassy field was not soggy. Rosemary and I got there about 9 AM to make sure the grassy field was OK for parking the cars and inform some of the regulars that the lawn was open for parking. The sun broke […]
It was about 8:45 AM and I knew we were at the right place because Larry Levin, NER’s PCA photographer, was already there. Larry is the often-credited photographer for our on-line magazine and website. Mistakenly, the website posting of our 11 September starting time was changed from 10 to 9 AM, making for a long […]
Sunday morning was busy, preparing for the Porsches and Coffee and saying goodbye to our two sons and their families. Along with beach time, going out to dinners and lunches, attending polo matches and visiting Newport’s attractions such as the aquarium, tea at Marble House, and then “the shopping”, my 4 year old grandson and our […]

I was a bit surprised by the turnout; more than 90 by last count. Forbes “Toby” Anderson parked his Black 1958 Porsche Super […]

The guy helping to park the cars was my younger brother Lou, a California PCA member owning (since new) a 2008 Cayman S. Lou and his friend Sandi dropped in for about a week […]

The island, cooled by Narragansett Bay kept the temperature in the 70s, while inland temperatures were in the 90s. I must […]
Our first of this season’s Porsches and Coffee was held in the parking lot of the Newport Car Museum located in Portsmouth RI. It was a breezy morning in the chilly 40s. I had a difficult time working my fingers writing down info about the cars and drivers. Considering the weather, we had a […]
15 August 2021 South of Boston (SoBo) Porsches and Coffee Before I discuss some of the Porsches, I want to mention a couple of items: one is June’s coffee, where I interviewed Edmund Williams with his yellow 2000 911. In retrospect, I may have overlooked […]
