Ken Gozdowiak joined the region in 2015. He drives a 1986 Carrera coupe. It is Iris Blue. "The interior is champagne or saddle with dark blue trim and carpets. It is pretty much stock. It has the factory short shift option and may have been delivered to the original owner in Europe," Ken said. "I purchased it in September 2013 after finding it on-line at a dealer in Texas. After getting a clean inspec-tion report on the car I decided to fly down to San Antonio and drive it back to Wisconsin. Covered 1,432 miles without an issue," he said. "Oddly enough, this is the second time it has lived in Wisconsin," Ken said adding, "and relatively close by too. The car was first registered in Arizona, then Wisconsin, Missouri, Virginia and finally Texas where I found it. It was even stolen and re-covered early in its life. It even has a PCA decal on the windshield. It is possible some current member in the Milwaukee region may remember this car. "My Dad had two Corvairs and that gave me my first look at air-cooled engines. The car magazines in the mid 1970s featured all these wild Italian cars but the comparisons al-most always included a Porsche. Plus sportscar racing was dominated by Porsche in the '70s and '80s. But I always admired how the Porsche con-tinued to evolve year after year. Not just change for the sake of change. I just knew that some day I would own one," he said.

Tell your story of Porsche ownership Every member, whether he or she joined a month ago or dec-ades ago, has a unique story of how they acquired their first Porsche. What attracted you to Porsche ownership? How long have you owned your Porsche and how did you find it? What is the color (exterior/interior) and are there any special features or modifi-cations? Send your story to the region newsletter editor. Include a .jpg of your car (if a photo is handy). Then watch the newsletter for your story. Beverly.jurkowski@sbcglobal.net

It’s time for Turbo Spaghetti

Merlyn Curtis 2015 Sonya Ruminski 2015 Thomas McCann 2015

Happy New Year! It’s not too early to think spring! The PCA-Milwaukee Region group will tour the most-southerly segment of the Wisconsin’s Great River Road (“GRR”) in May. We will depart from the west side of Milwaukee on the morning of Friday, May 20, 2016. We’ll drive the Interstate west no longer than necessary to access the fun, Porsche-centric roads of the Drift-less Area. After many miles of twisty, hilly backroads, we’ll end up at Botham Vineyards in Barneveld for a catered lunch and a wine tasting. Peter Botham is a “car guy,” who includes Porsches among his collection. After lunch, we’ll drive more twisty, hilly backcoun-try roads before arriving in Mineral Point for a pri-vate tour of historic Pendarvis, the old Welch-founded lead-mining community. After departing Min-eral Point, we’ll take main roads to our venue for Friday and Saturday nights: Chestnut Mountain Ski Resort, on a high bluff overlooking the Mississippi River, just south of Galena, Ill. Friday evening, we’ll enjoy a group dinner in the Sunset Grill at the resort, providing an opportunity to get to know other partic-ipants a little better and “talk Porsches!” Saturday morning after breakfast at the resort on your own, you’ll have a choice to make: 1) you can decide to have a leisurely day exploring Galena on your own. There are a multitude of things to see and do! There are scores of restaurants, shops, galleries and boutiques to explore, as well as many historic sites, or 2) you can elect to exercise your Porsche on more Wisconsin Driftless Area backroads (as well as the GRR). For those electing to drive, we’ll head back north into Wisconsin and end up in Potosi for lunch. Our lunch venue will be the histor-ic Potosi Brewing Company, where we’ll also have a guided tour through the Brewing Museum. After lunch, we’ll drive a few more miles of backroads before making a beeline back to Chest-nut Mountain, arriving mid-afternoon. You’ll have the remainder of the afternoon to relax or to ex-

plore Galena. Saturday night, dinner will be on your own in a restaurant of your own choosing around Ga-lena. Sunday, after breakfast on your own, at the resort, or at another restaurant of your choosing, you can linger around Galena, or elect to head back to Milwaukee early. Regardless, there will NOT be a group return drive. You’ll be on you own, or you can elect to cara-van home with friends. An important note: In order to keep the group size manageable, this tour will be limited to the first 20 cars/drivers to register! Once we have 20 cars/drivers registered, no more participants will be accepted. Please register early to avoid being disappointed! Chestnut Mountain’s deadline for registering is Sun-day, April 10, 2016, but recognize that all 20 car/driver openings may be filled well before then!

Registering is an easy two-step process: First - Call Chestnut Mountain Re-sort [800-397-1320] and make your room reservation. Be sure to inform them that you’re with the PCA-Milwaukee Region group to receive our group rate. There are two choices: A. Landside rooms are newly remodeled, you can choose either a king bed or two double beds for a rate of $139 per night, or B. Riverside rooms are nice, clean, roomy and functional, just a little dated, for $99 per night, again for either a king bed or

two double beds. Second – Once you have made a room reservation, email Al Wagner [alan.wagner@wi.rr.com] to inform him that you have made a reservation. Al will add you to the list to receive further trip details and updates. Participants will receive an abundance of details and information. Just ask past participants!
