Spotted Golfman again

Saturday evening in the turning lane for Bennigan's in Trussville/Chalkville. We were in a big black Ford SUV so we blended in with the other hundreds of big black Ford SUV's. Sweet to see you again.

Hmmm, maybe. Don't think I was on Morris proper.

This morning at a stoplight some senior citizen in a nondescript sedan sang out "car 84 where are you?" That was cute.

Followed a black / White roofed cooper yesterday down Grant's Mill Rd and 119 for a bit. It was a detour I couldn't resist- still made it to my destination on time.

Hit that jackpot at Publix in Helena yesterday. There was a CR/W MC that I tagged & a BRG/W MC that I met the driver, a lady named Jerry, who was very interested in meeting other MINIacs so hopefully she will go to bamamini & sign up

I saw you

Hey Bamatt, I saw you On 280 Friday I belive. You was heading like going into Homewood. I was in my work van going the other way.

BY the way if anyone see's a Work van with MINI stickers on it , that would be me. That should be bonus points if you can find me in a work van with MINi Stickers.

I tagged a human being Saturday night. A lady coming out of Publix in Pelham came over to me & my MINI. She said she is from CA & her hubby drives a cabrio & would love to get a roof decal like mine so I gave her a tag card & passed a lil business over to Ed at Cooper Flags

Mozzarella, yep that was me on 65 this morning. Windows down, sunroof open due to the A/C dead as a result of the collision with road trash last week. When Stephen took the thing apart he found that the trash was still in the car! A piece of plate steel 12"x3"x 1/4". I'm glad now that it hit down there and not the windscreen. It also trashed the radiator, but no leaks yet. It will be replaced next week when Stephen gets the part in.

Ono, yep me. I was leaving Stephen's garage after having my radiator and fan replaced. I saw you back there and started to get out and say hey at one of the God-awful long red lights.

Yesterday, someone in a Red S thought we were nuts, waving to him from the sidewalk in Patton Creek. He was pretty convincing, acting as if he had no clue why we were waving.
Parked next to a Silver S up at Lake HIghland Saturday night.
