Re: Dogs in Audis

Well...

There is physical evidence of Leo's presence at both AudiFest events
available on at least 2 listers web pages.  That alone accounts for 6000
miles.  Then there's the trip from NE Iowa to LA to South Carolina.  Not
to mention the air travel...  IA to LA (return trip by auto; another 2k
miles), and roundtrip from SC to LA last Christmas.

How am I doin'?

Ed Kellock ................... Greenville, SC  USA
Leo ......... 15 lb Shih Tzu ....... road warrior ...... AudiFest mascot
.... et al
91 200q avant .......... 87 Coupe GT
