This past Sunday morning, nine beautiful Porsches, no, make that eight beautiful Porsches and a Genesis met early at Black Bear Diner with the united goal of a great drive through the back country of southern Utah to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Kanab, Utah. The morning air was crisp and the skies cloudy. Our tour leaders, Doug and Leslie Beck greeted us upon arrival and gave us the usual safety talk.
With the prep work out of the way, it was time to get started. Our drive began by making our way through Hurricane and then on to Apple Valley via Hwy 59. After Apple Valley we continued [...]

Our four-day tour in May explored three of Nevada’s storied highways.
DAY 1 – Great Basin Highway: Our meetup location was originally set for the Petro Travel Center at the Speedway. After discovering that was the last morning of the EDC Festival and there would be 185,000 blurry-eyed concert goers trying to escape, we wisely switched to another location. Good move! Lunch in Caliente at the Knotty Pine Restaurant, and on to Ely. Absolutely gorgeous snowy mountains made this leg of the trip picturesque. Dinner at JT’s Steakhouse was mouth-watering with grass-fed beef from the owner’s own ranch.
Day 2 – Loneliest Highway in America: In 1986, Life Magazine labeled HWY 50 the “Loneliest Highway in America” and described it as a road with nothing to see. A rep from AAA stated “there are no points of interest. We don’t recommend it, unless they’re confident of their survival skills” We beg to [...]

By Reid Smith
April 12th was a special day for our Las Vegas Region. We made history by having a record turnout of 55 cars participating in a drive! It all started when Frank Grimmelmann from AZPCA let me know that they were planning a Fun Run weekend and wondered if we could organize a drive. They had 19 cars on the way and we supplied the rest! The Mt. Charleston area is beautiful this time of year and we were fortunate to have great weather and roads.
