sorry for the late notice but how could i not come when being complemented by Ohbeave. Ill go grab directions from map quest and see you guys at sterling. Been doing some minor changes to the interior which im not completly done yet but im working on it slowly. Did i fail to mention my shift change has taken effect so i have fridays and Saturday (nights) off. Therefore you may be seeing me more often

Bugged · Aug 5th, 2003, 08:43 PM

I just don't know. If the kid comes out after Thursday then probably not. However if Saturday morning rolls around maybe....

Mike & Donna in Ca. · Aug 5th, 2003, 10:27 PM

Mugami - yay!! We're so glad you can make this one!!! And glad to hear you've had a shift change....lots more things coming up...

And Bugged - maybe a day with all of us is just what the doctor ordered!!! Come on out and play with us

Not too many bad twisties on this one....

Chow!

Same story...different day.

Too much to do...all work and no play make's COOP a dull lad. Sooorrry, maybe next time...but DO enjoy yourselves!

Mugami · Aug 6th, 2003, 01:56 PM

np mike.. was going to leave a 6am to make there on time(hour early is on time for me) but ill be more than happy to wait so we can motor up there together

minhi · Aug 7th, 2003, 03:44 PM

wow, tony really wants to drive.

if i was making the trip up, i'd leave at 8:30 or 9:00 to make it up to the KK by 10:30, i guess Tony really wants to make it to Sterling MINI

S2000&CooperS · Aug 8th, 2003, 12:38 PM

Thanks to all the organizers for a great event!

I had fun. We were very fortunate to escape (most of) the rain! As I understand it rained cats and dogs all morning after I left Richmond headed for NoVA. Mike W - good choice on selecting KK as a meeting place - mmmmmmmmm, warm donuts

. Ruth, it was nice meeting you at KK - great looking CR/W Cooper!.

The last section of the drive did indeed remind me (and others) of the Dragon and Caesar's Head which is in the same vicinity. Cruising thru the one-lane tunnel with all of us honking our horns was cool too

.

It was nice seeing those of you whom I know again and making new friends. Kim and Ed from Ashburn, Scott from PA, it was pleasure sitting with you at lunch and chatting about MINIs.

I was very surprised to see I had the only Pure Silver present (I think)!

.

I love the checkerboard/red S from CooperFlags - too bad BMW/MINI pulled the plug on that one as it is a shame because it looks great.

Looking forward to the next one!

Take care,

Mike
