Replying to: ateixeira (Jun 04, 2009 6:40 am) The drops got baked in for at least a day before I discovered it. Most of the cleaning sites recommended rubbing alcohol, but we didn't have any. My wife found some Swimmer's Ear in the medicine cabinet that's mostly alcohol and that helped quite a bit. I didn't want to get too aggresive and make it worse by leeching out the dye on the leather. Some baking soda probably would help though - probably would help keep any ink from rubbing off on my pants. Stuff happens.

Replying to: steve_ (Jun 04, 2009 7:20 am) Haha; that it does, but who would ever have thought it would be that?! Not that this has anything to do with the topic at hand, but I embark on my trip south tomorrow night! I will contact you and Brenda for phone #s so I will be able to keep in touch as we progress on our trip. I doubt I will be logging in from the road, as we are going to be camping on this go round. It is always nice to think we will travel as planned, but with two children and 205,000 miles, anything can happen! Replies to this message: ladywclass (Jun 04, 2009 9:53 am)

Replying to: steve_ (Jun 04, 2009 7:20 am) That's nothing. My boys decided to leave Crayons which got behind and under their booster seats in my WRX. Nice environmentally friendly soy based green, yellow and blue. I got to discover a modern art dried puddle which soaked into the cavities of the WRX cloth. Ice cubes enabled me to remove quite a bit, but some had worked its way into the fibres and never came out.
#31098 of 31413 Subaru Crew Gathering at Stoney Creek by ateixeira Jun 08, 2009 (6:35 am)
Got together with Bob and Frank yesterday, and ate some yummy crab cakes at the Stoney Creek Inn.

Bob came in his WRX, I parked side-by-side so we could get some photos. I had the regular crab cake platter, but Bob had the big one, and boy, that crab cake seemed to be the size of an Apple Pie! It was HUGE! Lots of crab meat and very little filler, so it was delicious. Thanks to lucien for the recommendation. After lunch Bob and I drove to a Subaru dealer in Silver Spring, but all the dealerships were closed, so we were only able to check out a few cars from the outside. They didn't have any 2010 Subarus at all, so I didn't get to see that 2nd red color used for the 2010 Forester. Bummer. We dropped by a Mazda dealer so I could show Bob the new Sunburst Yellow color for the Miata (gorgeous, but not available in hard top form). Then we snapped a pic of the new Cube, a quirky but neat little car. After that we even hit the BMW dealer at the same auto park and were able to get in an unlocked Z4 hardtop. Very nice but those things have grown in to big and heavy GTs now.

Replying to: ateixeira (Jun 08, 2009 6:35 am) Yup, lots of fun, and my crab cake was a 1-pounder. Bob Replies to this message: ateixeira (Jun 08, 2009 11:10 am) steve_ (Jun 08, 2009 12:29 pm) rsholland (Jun 08, 2009 1:14 pm) kyfdx (Jun 08, 2009 3:35 pm) and 4 more...

Replying to: rsholland (Jun 08, 2009 9:03 am) A whole pound? Yikes! It sure looked huge, though. I liked that they had Old Bay Seasoning in salt shakers at every table.

Replying to: ateixeira (Jun 08, 2009 11:10 am) We should have taken a picture of the 1-pound crab cake—just to drive Steve nuts! Hey, there's another excuse to go back...
