Tess, did I see you today (Sunday) heading toward Conway? I was in a blue convertible with checkerboard side mirrors heading toward LR.

I also passed a blue MINI on 40 on my way into LR. They waved!!

Then I saw one on Markham today too.

I saw the silver s in the WM parking lot again last night - and I met the lady. But I was driving my hubby's truck and I don't think she believed I owned a mini. It's ok though...at least mine was at home, sparkling clean. (if you happen to read this, please wash your car - she needs it!)

I came out of Walmart in West Memphis Friday night to find a PH/B Cooper parked a row over from my PH/B Cooper S. First time I have seen another PH/B in about a year! For a split second I was confused... I told my husband that I could have sworn that I parked facing the other direction and then I noticed the wheels were wrong!

That must have been my daughter, yes I succumbed to the begging and let her drive it to Mayflower to pick up a friend, I was scared, lol. She loved it, but I told her not to think about asking me again

I've a seen a blue convertible, but not sure it was you or not, didn't notice any checkerboard, but hey when you're going 85 or so, not wise to look at a car going the opposite direction for too long ;-)

How you doing fastfritz? This is RESMINI from Russellville. Just thought I'd let you know I finally reached 10,000 miles on my '03 MC. Don't see you in Russellville much anymore. Maybe I'm just not getting out enough?

Hey resmini, welcome to the AMOK forum. Hope to see you around sometime.

mrs. mini, no I didn't catch up with them. I'm really going to have to watch my speed. I blew my probation this weekend, I got another ticket. He got me doing 81; I was near Blytheville. I was kinda surprised he pulled me over. Normally, they let you go....I was only doing 81! Oh well, it's only money....

I was looking for one of my laughing smileys, but it seems that boardsmiles is no more, it takes me to a domain name web site.

Carrie will be shocked that i posted anything at all

all these MINI owners on probation. Who'd have thought that such a cute little car could cause so much trouble for so many. I guess "corruption comes in small packages".

I saw an 07 Pepper white Cooper going the oppisite direction as I was going down Cantrell hill this morning. May have been Dorothy.

Saw an orange convertible parked behind the office building on Univerisity - parking lot behind it on Pierce. Sure was pretty!

Saw a black one coming down Evergreen...they waved!

Seems like there's more and more MCs showing up latey...or do I just look for them more?

Hey cavanauk, glad you're on board here.

I saw two yesterday. They were on 40 heading out of Conway. One was light blue w/white stripes; the next one was black w/ white stripes. I wonder if the black one caught up with the blue one? Did they wave at each other? I was on the phone so couldn't really wave. sorry

WEdnesday, I was taking my daughter to bass lessons. Sorry I wasn't looking. At that time of day traffic seems to pick up on the main streets.
I'll have to keep my eyes out better.

Hey, you have the light blue MINI with white stripes!! That was my husband who gave you the card. We live just 2 miles from the park n ride in Mayflower. Welcome!

Check out the thread on the November event at Mount Magazine. We'd love to have you join us if you could.

What restaurant do you manage? Is it the Back Yard Burger? Because I ate there a few weeks ago and talked to a guy there who had a mini. If it is you - hi again! If not...hi anyways!
