As a customer of this joint, I can say with 100% honesty (a rare event but this is special) that the berries at this place are, by far, the finast and biggest blueberries I have ever seen. They have the flavor of the wild berries and the size and juiciness of....I don't know what.

I didn't connect these MAMA members with their farm until this idea came up but boy howdy are we in for a treat! The weavings in the studio are superb and the setting really very pretty.

I propose a kids' blueberry tongue contest.

rfinprc · Mar 16th, 2005, 11:18 PM

This sounds like a berry good time!

MaxaMini · Mar 17th, 2005, 02:42 AM

Shoot. Two days before I get to be Father of the Bride. I don't think Mart will allow my absence.

yellowmininy · Mar 17th, 2005, 03:19 AM

I dunno, Father of the Bride with a blueberry tongue could be just the thing!

kgouin · Mar 17th, 2005, 05:15 AM

What time will we meet there?

Since the farm is also open to the public, let's beat the crowds and say around 5 a.m.

Actually, how does 11 a.m. sound?

I think it would be a great place for the rehersal dinner.

jcsinnh · Mar 17th, 2005, 11:26 AM

Since there are already plans being made to disrupt the wedding, why not start a day or two early? Practice makes perfect.

I thought we were keeping the Massive MINI Nuptial Crash Rally a surprise for Ed and Mart? You've ruined the surprise.

Just so the count is correct you may want to revise the list. Looks like John is listed twice.

11am sounds good to me!

GBMINI · Mar 31st, 2005, 01:50 AM

A nearly secret event? Silence since two days after the thread was first posted? Any MAMA email gone out to every member?
Sadly for all of you, I spotted the thread hidden away here in the depths of the NE MINI2 sticky list - now almost longer than the non-stickys!

Sounds like a fun day.

Actual Size · Mar 31st, 2005, 09:20 AM

MAMA mail will be going out soon. Just have to firm a few details.

Oh......Ian. Hi, Ian, where you been? Vegas?

Yeah ... Las Vegas for three days then into California - Palm Springs, San Diego, and a nightmare drive through Los Angeles followed by an overnight on top of a mountain behind San Bernadino which had so many washed away bits that the only way off (we EVENTUALLY discovered) was the same way we went up ... and finally back to Las Vegas for three days.
Three Cirque Du Soleil shows, 1450 miles in a tank (Chrysler 300) and not enough hot weather.

Tonymini · Apr 1st, 2005, 05:14 PM

Berries in July sounds like a great trip
Count us out of staters in..

Actual Size · Apr 1st, 2005, 05:42 PM

It'll be great to see you and Wanda again.

DanzMINI2 · Apr 2nd, 2005, 02:47 AM

I signed up today! I think?

jcsinnh · Apr 2nd, 2005, 09:20 AM

Some events do not take place without W.D. McD. This is one of them. Now we can get rolling.
