May Happy Hour: Blue Mesa
By Frank Briggs, Concours Co-Chair and Happy Hour Aficionado
While the weather earlier
in the week seemed less
than friendly for Porsche
driving, the clouds parted, and
the evening of May 16 was perfect
for a gathering at the Blue Mesa
Restaurant and Bar on Northwest
Highway at Central Expressway.
Thirty-one Mavericks gathered for an evening of great
fellowship. Several attendees were relatively new members
attending one of their first
Maverick Region events. It is so
nice to see growth in our club
with so many active members.

Jack Griffin with
Bob Molyneux
Rick and Becky Robinson
along with Randy Csanadi
were the first on the scene,
and had already found the
adult beverages by the time
Bobbie and I arrived at
6:15. With the Robinsons
Photos by the Author
Ben and Sue Connell, President John Hamilton,
Paula and Norman McCollough, and Young Slack
living far north of the metroplex, it is great
to see them at most every Happy Hour.
Shortly after arriving, I met Young and Lyn Slack,
who had recently traded their 996 in on a new 991. It
was fun just seeing the excitement in their eyes as they
talked about future drives in that wonderful machine.
I also had the pleasure of meeting Ben and Sue Connell
along with Norman and Paula McCollough. The
