The Need For Speed

This past Friday we had the honor of being a part of a graduation celebration for our friend Dave and his wife Delane (Everybody know that the wife works just as hard and deserves honor as well)! He graduated top of his class in Med school, rocked the Boards, had his choice of Residencies and lucky for us he has decided to stay here. To celebrate Delane organized an amazing outing. We each got to drive on of her father's collector Mustang SVT Cobra Convertibles up to the Jemez. The drive was breathtaking and the cars were incredible. Keith was in heaven. These cars are beautiful and not to mention fast! At 540 horsepower they were soooo fast and powerful. I even got up the courage to drive one. You pushed the gas pedal a fraction and you were up to 90 mph in nothing flat.
Congratulations Dave and Muff, your hard work and diligence has paid off. Thanks for letting us be a part of your celebration!

We had to create our own Muscle Car Magazine shot


Muffin & Dave
She wrote this beautiful poem about the Med School journey that was a tribute to him



Picture proof that I drove
Keith even said that I handled the clutch really well!
