That would mean I needed to cross the border around 5:00am. This would be too early for me. Thanks Scoop for trying to organize this, though.

Maybe a visit to LA isn't a bad idea.
Can't blame a guy for trying

Beken -- Would love to buy you a pint in Vegas if we run into each other to make up for the ungodly early departure time of my Washington MINI bretheren. You staying at the Palace?

We're leaving at 5:30am to beat the border rush, and make it to Pocatello for supper. Now that's ungodly.

Well, AMVIV is NEXT WEEK!

We're leaving Monday morning and hope to make it to the Fullerton CA area by Tuesday afternoon. Then head up to Las Vegas on Wednesday.
We will leave Las Vegas to head home on Sunday. Maybe I can caravan with Scooop from PSMINI or others. But hope to avoid any snow routes. I won't have snowtires, but will carry a set of chains just in case. I understand Snoqualmie Pass is still covered in the white stuff so might want to cross the mountains further south.

I have not booked any motels enroute because the last time I went, the American Motel system worked fine. Pull in, ask for a room, go to bed.


Those of you going, see you there. Have a safe drive....Motor on!
