Stammtisch with 356 Porsche Friends

A "Stammtisch" is an informal group meeting held on a regular basis, and also the usually large, often round table around which the group meets. A Stammtisch is not a structured meeting, but rather a friendly get-together...Well we had our first official Stammtisch at a friend's house here in San Diego, California and it was so nice to see friends and their vintage Porsches for a casual dining chit chat. The photos say it all!
