The Smarties will be flowing....

 

geez! coming from marin on 27th leaving about 6-630am i5 to st route 138 through palmdale to 15. hopefully arrive 3-4pm, can't wait.first time!

 

OMG, If anyone from Canada could bring some HONEY DIP TIMBITS that would be amazing...not sure how they'd hold up in a MINI full of people and gear, but if you happen to stop before the border (and the border man lets you keep em...) please oh please, for the sake of Rick Mercer and all that's holy, bring on the honey dip timbits!
I'll be at the Palace Station from Thursday around 2pm, with the TALL Red Head husband...

 

I could try to bring some that are made fresh on Tuesday morning (when we leave) -- I wonder how they'll hold up to being in a ziplock bag for three days?

 

I'll be crossing the border on Monday morning. You sure you want 4 day old Timbits?

 

I have never had timbits but I hear they are amaseing

 

Leaving DC in the morning! This is exciting!

 

what is your door to door, google map mileage?

 

door-to-door, it's 2409 miles. However, I'll be making a detour up to Idaho on the way. Figure about 3200 miles by the time I get there, give or take.

 

Damn... you have me beat...

my door to Palace station door.. I only have a few minor detours... last year I did 9,100km round trip.

3 738 kilometer = 2 322.685 516 6 mile

 

Have a safe drive Claymore. See you in North Bend, Washington on Tuesday with the PSMINI group. Wow! Washington to Washington... then to Vegas!

 

From what I am lead to believe, Timbits preserve nicely in Kokanee ...

 

Canadian, Kokanee
Got it...
Now, there will be a limit,,,
First come first serve, as I certainly don't want a bidding war...
OR WAIT....hmmmmmm

lol

Sounds to me like the smarties and tim bits from TIMMYS are covered....
Besides, lets be honest...If I had timbits in the car I would have to eat them!
and I am sure no one wants the empty timbits box...although..they are quite the handy little carrier.....
lol


OMG I AM GETTING SO EXCITED!!!!!!!
WOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!:thumbsu p:

 

bad News....

the store that I got the Turkish Delights from.... is closed... I am trying to source some out... no luck so far though... :(

Heading out on Monday morning with a buddy. Picking up his brother Tuesday morning in Belen, NM. Rolling 3 adults in a MINI for the extended should be fun and/or interesting :D

See you guys in Vegas on Wednesday!

 

You know that first-timers gotta buy beer for those of us that've never missed an AMVIV.

 

So we woke up to 2 inches of snow on the ground this morning, and it's still coming down, along with a weather warning. WTF?

I sure hope it clears up by Tuesday morning (or Monday, as some of our group are leaving then).

 

 

Pfft... I still have over 2 ft of snow at home, and there are also some Blizzards in the forcast for the Dakotas that could get down to Omaha, on my way there..... so we will see how that goes...

I was debating taking my winters off for the trip, didn't have any issues last year... so I have my Potenza 760's on....

 

In the end, I ended up with about 10" of snow in my driveway.

Montana is looking pretty nasty today, I may have to see about stuffing the summer wheels in the back and keeping the winters on.

 

HI everyone, Left Lake Tahoe on Monday. Stopping at Disneyland Tue, Wed, Will arrive Vegas afternoon of Thurs.This will be Year 6 for me. Bringing my 07 this year.Mini running Great. Traffic in L.A. SUCKS. Looking forward to seeing all my Friends again..Glenn from Tahoe. P.S. Sat. night into Sun. had 2 feet of new Snow in Tahoe, So had a delay and waited to Monday to depart.

 

We've got some with us, fresh this morning, and none got eaten on the trip (thus far... ). Come and find us on Thursday, we'll have a Canadian flag on our aerial.

 

good, cause I forgot... and well left Canada on Sat... so they would have been pretty stale...

 

We left Vancouver Monday morning and played slaloms between SUVs with a silver MINI Cooper down I-5. Not sure if he was headed for amviv or not. The car had California plates and a big "O" decal on the left side of the rear window. I spent the night in a Motel in Redding and this morning noticed my Vancouver MINI Cooper Club grill badge was taken. It was on my car when I checked in. Tonight, I am spending the night with relatives in Fullerton and will head up to Las Vegas Wednesday morning. The timbits will be stale.

We also saw somebody in a blue MINI Cooper convertible from Washington State. I'm pretty sure I recognized him as somebody from PSMINI. He turned off at Sacramento.

See you all soon.
