La Bella Macchina 2007...
was anybody there tonight?

talk about a gathering of F-cars... and the new 599 Fiorano. wow!

the hangar held a lear, a legacy, a piaggio, two 599s. outside there were hawkers, falcon, citation, G, king air, cirrus, some i didn't recognize. and then trump's 727 pulled up near the end, 830ish i think.

what a great time. with all the VVVips there, the valet gave my SL65 one of the best spots in the whole lot, even when the lot was full and closed. he didn't even want the tip i offered after he'd waved us in. that 65 is quite a charm. LOL.
