Well it is official!!!

I am sorry to say this but I am leaving the DC area. I just accepted a job offer in Charleston, SC with Eagan McAllister. I start down there on July 23. I will be leaving Southern Maryland around the 16th of July. I am sorry to have to go but I cannot live here anymore and besides I will be making more money down there. But my girlfriend's family (Jessie aka Stripes) lives in Southern Maryland so when we come up to visit her family I will have to come on a run with you all! I will miss everyone a lot!!! And I will also continue to be a member of DCMM!!

Stripes is very excited for me to be getting down there! And of course if anyone wants to come down and visit feel free, just give us a heads up so we can be prepared!

And Chris... Stripes and I will definitely be at the Dragon in '08!

you'll be happy to know that he GM of the Hendrick dealerships down is Charleston races a MINI. Great guy go by and see him. If he's not out of town racing his car is usually in the MINI dealership show room. And they do great work on MINI's there.

I will miss having our MINI-Bee flying around, but Charleston is such a beautiful city. One of my favorite places. I am sure you will love it there.

Good news checklist:

1) New job, more money
2) Girlfriend is going with you
3) DCMM friends pledging to visit
4) MOVING CLOSER TO THE DRAGON!

I'd say big congratulations are in order! Good luck from the other MINI_Bee.

Nope, moving to Summerville, next to North Charleston.

I would love to come play but I will be too busy unpacking and setting up the house... for the first few weeks anyway. Once I get settled in down there I will definitely be out to play.

You've started a trend... I will be leaving the DC area the week of July 15th heading to Florida for a few weeks. If your already there, I'll give you a shout on my way through and maybe we can have lunch or dinner together. I'd enjoy meeting Stripes and seeing y'all before I head back to the islands.

Boy.... DC getting to be a lonely place

Not a good bye, but until next time. You're right.
I will miss you and your kick-a## MCSa.

Let me know next time you're coming up, we can go to the track again.
I promise I will give you a better race next time.

See you.

Safe travels, man. I understand completely why you're going (although remember, Southern MD is NOT really DC... you could have still "gotten out of there" and come up here, with Jessie!).

Say hi to Chris (CustomAV) for me when you get to Charleston.
