Look what we found (Princess and I) WOOT....WOOT....!!!! We are matchmakers too!!!!! I know who this post is about!!!! Craigslist:

white Smart car, cute guy on Lombard Sunday morning - w4m



You were in the white Smart car in the 150+ vehicle contingent on Sunday morning. I was walking my dog and we exchanged a smile. Was it because of me or my dog? If this is really you, describe what I was wearing and/or the intersection. Cheers! (Btw, this is my very first missed connection post...I swear!)

Hi John -

Hi folks,

Wow, we pulled it off! Amazing. I heard there was 138 smarts though different people's counts vary. It was a ton of work and cost us a bunch of money for all the permits and everything, but all in all very well worth it! Everyone really made it such a great time, the comradery and oodles of smiles as well driving with all these cool people was such a blast!

I just started a flickr group for people to pool their photos together. Flickr is a photo-sharing site (owned by yahoo) .. I've sent a few people invites already but for anyone who uploaded their pics please feel free to add the group/event pics from the "lombard street 08" here:

Cheers!

Funny thing, did anyone see the PINK smart that was parked in Sausalito when we left the venue there? I didn't see it at all in during the Rallye, but noticed it when we left, just parked there not saying anything. :-)

Hi folks. Yep that was a fun day. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to put this together and all of you who came out and made it such a huge success.

I submitted a new application to Guinness for "Most cars to fit on to Lombard St in San Francisco"

I'll let you know when I hear back from them, if they will consider this for a new record. There apparently is no record for this yet !!
