../.. TYP356ne Cranberry Harvest Drive, Oct 10 2009 <br><br> This past Saturday 15 members, some accompanied and others not, met at the Raynham, MA Lowes parking lot to partake in one of the last scheduled drives for the year. <br><br> The weather cooperated and even though it was quite cloudy, we had some moments of much appreciated sunshine. The temperature was brisk but tolerable for those of us that chose to drive with the top down. Classic New England fall weather was the rule of the day. <br><br> The drive was pleasantly paced, with “plenty of beautiful twisty, hilly back roads just made for 356 Porsche Pushin’”, as promised by the Drive Master, Norm Brust, lasting close to 2 hours and for the most part all 15 cars were able to keep up. The drive took us thru very nice back roads with some very impressive New England landscapes in Raynham, Middleboro, Rochester and ended in Wareham. The views were at times comparable to the classic views that New England in known for with the color of Fall. <br><br> We arrived at the Annual Cranberry Harvest Festival at AS Marketplace in Wareham where we made a group entrance to a special parking that drew the attention of the festival attendees. We all parked together on a small incline where immediately Festival attendees proceeded to admire our cars. Plenty of pictures were taken of the cars while we chatted with some of the attendees and amongst ourselves. There was plenty of food available to meet all of our pallets and the artisans goods were beautiful and impressive. We strolled around the grounds for a couple of hours and we departed at different times. <br><br> Norm and Janet did a great job in planning this drive. It all went like clockwork and without a hitch. <br><br> Thank you Norm and Janet! <br><br> - Ed Santana slides/Harvest festival 09 005.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Norm and Jan Brust, drive coordinators##Bill Sooter Norm and Jan Brust, drive coordinators##Bill Sooter Harvest festival 09 005.JPG slides/Harvest festival 09 008.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Country road caravan##Bill Sooter Country road caravan##Bill Sooter Harvest festival 09 008.JPG slides/IMG_4011.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Cars lined up before the drive##Ralph Hadley Cars lined up before the drive##Ralph Hadley IMG_4011.JPG slides/IMG_4013.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Ralph Hadley, Jim Hannum and Bill Sooter##Linda Hadley Ralph Hadley, Jim Hannum and Bill Sooter##Linda Hadley IMG_4013.JPG slides/IMG_4018.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Norm Brust giving a Drivers Meeting##Ralph Hadley Norm Brust giving a Drivers Meeting##Ralph Hadley IMG_4018.JPG slides/IMG_4021.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Members cars##Ralph Hadley Members cars##Ralph Hadley IMG_4021.JPG slides/IMG_4022.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Country road##Ralph Hadley Country road##Ralph Hadley IMG_4022.JPG slides/IMG_4031.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Cranberry bogs##Ralph Hadley Cranberry bogs##Ralph Hadley IMG_4031.JPG slides/IMG_4038.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 ##Ralph Hadley ##Ralph Hadley IMG_4038.JPG slides/IMG_4040.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Cranberry harvesting equipment##Ralph Hadley Cranberry harvesting equipment##Ralph Hadley IMG_4040.JPG slides/IMG_4041.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Cooking demonstration at the fair##Ralph Hadley Cooking demonstration at the fair##Ralph Hadley IMG_4041.JPG slides/IMG_4045.html Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:53:41 +0000 Jalbum 8.0 Cranberries##Ralph Hadley Cranberries##Ralph Hadley IMG_4045.JPG
