Somerset Hills 'Drive for the Kids' autism awareness/benefit

Went to a truly splendid event today, a benefit for autism in Bedminster, NJ. It was pretty impressive that this outstanding fundraiser was put together by a high school senior. Can't think of any way this could have been a better day. Except for the getting lost bit, but that's not the organizer's fault!

Fundraiser, awareness meeting, get together, broad range of sports car marques, drive through beautiful countryside + phenomenal spring weather made this a success on all fronts.
