Thought I would share with all....

I'm from Canada, but from time to time I venture south and this weekend, the morning after my high-school grad reunion, after about 4 hours sleep, I drove 170 (sorry, I over-estimated...I told them just under 200) miles to Seattle for their first annual show n shine.

I met some folks from Oak Harbor and convoyed with them south and 100 MINI both classic and current showed up.

I took some pics with my 35mm SLR. But for now, a few pictures from my cell phone will have to do until I develop the film. Sorry about the poor picture quality.

The folks at Puget Sound Mini can throw a party. I had a great time and met many great people.

Those pictures could not possibly have been taken in Tacoma, the sun is shining.

Thanks for sharing, looks like a great time.

It's also forest fire season.

I lived in Kenmore for two years.

I was teasing, I had to water the grass in July and August.
