Just added about a dozen of mine to the group- there's a MINI in every photo. . . but you have to look hard to find it in the ones taken from the top of the dam!

Can't wait to see everyone else's!

Should I include this set, or leave out the bad memories?

Was this on the Cherohola Skyway? That would have been a cool site to see all the minis go by.

Thanks,

Mark

That's cropped from full resolution, so everything else is just filler, but we'll post the full version when we start the uploads tonight. I've still got to pull pics from the DSLR.

No, that was on the Foothills Parkway during Saturday morning's Sunrise Drive. Which was an awesome drive! Except for following a tour bus for ten miles.

We will upload ours as soon as I can find my USB cable. We will also include a photo that we took while offroading in my Cabrio. Long story short we drove 10 miles over a mountain on a seasonal road that no car should have been on. It was honestly the most scared I have been in my life. And before anyone says "you should have turned around" I had no idea how long the road was and how bad it was. I was being optimistic that any second it would turn into pavement. Over an hour later and many many rocks and ruts we made it out alive. I am just glad my car isnt lowered and I didnt bend my Konig Feathers (a real credit to their strength)

Also Cabriopilot thank you so much as my wife and I enjoyed bumping into you alot (stalker?) =P I still cant believe that we only found out you were in the room next door when we were packing up. I hope to meet you again while out motoring.

I checked with the front desk and they said we checked in first so I guess that makes you the STALKER

Just added mine. Everyone else is a better photographer than I, though. I suck....so does my camera. Wait, I'll just blame it all on the camera.

Wow! I was just on the Flickr website and there is a total of 586 pictures already uploaded from this years MOTD event.
I love just clicking on the slideshow presentation and letting it run for hours.

If anyone else would like to contribute your pictures to the MOTD 2008 pool please feel free add your photo memories.
The group is up to 26 members and counting.
Don't worry if you don't think your picture is of a professional standard we are mainly interested in your perspective of the time you spent there.
