March 22 2009 Spring Drive with

The www.milwaukeeminis.com club will be meeting us for the Spring Kick Off Drive. March 22nd.

This is a mellow drive to get back in the grove and meet some new friends and see some old friends.

9am; Those on the IL side or near the IL side we will meet at The Rover/Cooper Shop for coffee and donuts. Click Here for Map Link

1030am Meet MilwaukeeMINIs at Jelly Belly Factory in WI. This is a rest stop and you will have time to take the Factory Tour and shop for sugar.

1130am Group heads out for Mellow Drive along the Lake to see the many Painted Ladies (homes) in Kenosha WI before ending our drive for lunch at the Boat House on the water. Please bring cash to make "table checks" easier to pay.

Please post below if you plan to come or have any questions.

I'm trying to figure out where the Boat House restaurant is. Anyone have a link? I'm pulling up multiple listings and unsure which one you guys are talking about.

I *may* be in for 2. We'll see if we can roll out of bed in time!

Edit: Okay, we're in for 3 but not for lunch!
