| Mart Again Hi Everyone:
I remember visiting the Duck in Long Island - two years ago on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. We met at the mall and I watched 15 crazy mini drivers spinning around the rooftop of the mall, wondering when they would hit each other doing those figure eights! I also remember how crazy it was to go TO New York on the last day of the Holiday Weekend and then try to get home in the same day. I remember leaving at 5:30 in the morning to meet at Marcus Dairy, and then meet someone else on the way to Roosevelt? What was the most fun were the little hills at Montauk that we sped over, and actually caught wind under the mini. The ride home on the ferry was aweseome - a few beers with Peter Uptick and Antsmini. That was the beginning - besides the first RDR when we didn't have walkie talkies and didn't really know what was going on. From then on, those little questions Ed would ask me during the week - Wanna go to brunch on Sunday? And I said, SURE, but then think better of it and ask WHAT STATE? It would be New Hampshire, or Rhode Island or Massachusetts, or wherever there were minis gathered for some special comeraderie. What a treat, and what great people we met! And will continue to meet. Til then, I'll be motoring the Electric Blue with the duck on the antenna!
