My photo journal of AMVIV (lots of pics)

Didn't want to post this on the pics page since it's a ton of pics and didn't want to slow that thread down...

If anyone has pics of a hot orange MINI from Washinton, that's me... feel free to post them here

This is our first leg of the trip over the snoqualmie pass


Then it got night as we went down 93 to cut through Nevada... yeah, it was snowing HARD, we could barely see where the road was on a two lane road


Also, we couldn't see the signs since they were covered in snow also!


Finally got to Palace Station, not a lot of MINI's yet


Had to go find a car wash


The next morning, the MINI's only sign is out


NEMO also got his stripes


The sun came out and so did the sunshade


Here's the top of the garage (don't mind the rough cut of the panoramic)


Then got ready for the strip cruise, of course Mr. Cone got a ride


Staging for the strip


We got our own spot on the sign


The second floor of the garage


Staging for the Valley of Fire run


Is it this exit?


Lining up for the entrance


All MINI's in the visitor parking






Ok, that's it for now.. maybe more later

fantastic pics!

your pics make the runs look like a lot of fun. i didn't get to do any runs since i was on the top of the Palace station selling t-shirts, but I met a lot of great people.
