The shipping company fu*ked me and I had to cancel my flights this weekend and stay in Salt Lake so I could receive Vlad yesterday. Yesterday turned into 8pm yesterday. But the car is finally here and it came through unscathed.
I made lemonade out of the lemons of not getting home this weekend... First, I attended the Park City Cars & Coffee. A low-key event with a ton of really interesting cars. It's pretty obvious there's a lot of money in Park City and a lot of people in the greater Salt Lake area without so much money, but great passion for fun cars.
Vlad, of course, was the coolest car there... It was the only E28.
The only other classic BMWs were a ratty, bagged E23 and a pretty sweet Arcticblau 2002:
This '60 MB was amazeballs. The hottie and her owner who drove it weren't too bad either.

'82 Euro Carrera 3.0 Targa.

Lovely
Then I went shooting. Primary goal was to sight-in and practice with my .300 Win Mag (pre-63 model 70) so I'm prepared for an elk hunt in October. The guy (co-worker who is now my BFF) who took me shooting, showing me where to go on BLM land, had a nice collection of suppressed SBRs, including a .300 Blackout Sig Rattler and a CZ Scorpion.
300 yards, prone. 15-20mph winds. Last 2 shots were two of the 3 bottom right. I'm think I'm ready. My shoulder, however, hurts.
I like Utah just fine, thank you very much.
