Any 993 owners near Eureka, CA?

I just recently retired to Eureka. I had a 997.2, but it was too "civilized" and too quiet. I've got the itch for a 993 but would like to meet some current owners and see if it would be as satisfying as I think it would be.

An introduction to another local Porsche owner.

Ken,
I believe we are near neighbors.

I live on Davis Court and waved at you the other day while driving my Porsche Boxster 986. I bought it about a month ago.

Your car is beautiful. If you ever just want to show it off, I'm just down the street.

Thanks,
Brad

The above is an untrue statement, that reflects insufficient research into the 95-98 993 Porsche's. There is some truth in the statement however; it would be the last word, "research"
