Come to MAMA VII
Saturday, October 16, 2010

We'll meet at 10 a.m. at Alyson's Apple Orchard (http://www.alysonsorchard.com/alyson-orchards/) in Walpole, NH

Travel Tip: Avoid Keene, NH on your way up, over or down...The Pumpkin Festival is the same date and motoring through the city will be just about impossible.


As per the rule...We have no idea about the route yet

You Can Sign Up Here... (http://www.mini-mama.org/mainpages/ctm_form.htm)

Sorry, MAMA, but I have to work next weekend! Have a great time for me! :D

Very bummed , as I'm stuck working next weekend... stupid work . Hope the weather is good for you guys.

Sorry we won't be able to participate in the U-Turn-arama that is CTM!

Carol has shoulder reconstruction surgery this week and will be on heavy medications. We do have a strict sharing policy in our marriage, however, so I will also be in no condition to drive! Let's see...we could send Cooper up there...

Have fun all!

I hope Carol feels better soon!

Cooper could probably use some medication as well...

I was wondering about MAMA the other day, thinking to myself that I hadn't heard anything about it. Then I realized that, like many many people, I haven't been to MINI2 much.

Only one person has signed up for MAMA?

Get this - for the 2004 version, there were 843 replies - not views, replies - to the thread. In 2008 there were 85 and in 2009 there were 63 (including the two asking/answering about the 2010 version).

:(

Wow.

And this analysis won't be read because no one's here!

So, am I going? Not sure . . . Leaving for Las Vegas in the early a.m. Wednesday and don't get back until Friday evening.

Dang! - All the usual suspects are dropping like flies. This has always been one of my fave's & I've been at almost all of them. Pete has managed to put some rather depressing numbers to what we all see happening - Looks like MINI's are getting too common, or we're all too busy.....

I'll try to rattle things a little more over on MMC - somebody has to be paying attention.

Keep the faith, Rick - if all else fails, I'll come up & buy a round. Now if the Rynborn was still around...

Our thoughts are with Carol, Theo.

Dan...The Tavern here in Walpole is pretty good. The have small brewery beers on tap and rotate the kegs daily among 10-20 different kinds.

Low turnout is probably my fault due to the short notice. I won't go into details, but we were extremely busy for all of September.

Debbie and I won't be around,we are heading south Friday.. Doing a road trip in my MINI to the Smokies and Tale of the Dragon.. Even going to spend some time with old Fish Lips..

Theo -

"shoulder reconstruction surgery" Yikes! - I should have thought about that a little more - please give my best wishes to Carol & hope everything goes as pain-free as possible. I'll second the drugs for Cooper suggestion...

Have a good ride tomorrow everybody , wish I was going .

Wish you were here.

It's cold and dark, but we'll still have a good time as always.

Sorry I missed the run :( Hope you had a great time!

We did. Hit Alyson's Orchard for apples. Grafton Cheese and the Vermont Country Store. Finished up with some BBQ at The Pit Stop Smokehouse in Westmoreland. A really fun time with great people.

Any U turns? :D
