If it was Beanbag that was Rene (Beanbag on the board).

Right now I'm looking out my office window and I see a Cool Blue MCC w/a black top. Can't see anything more than that right now though. Oh yeah, my office is in Greenway Center (Greenbelt, MD).

Chased down a DS or RG MC from The Mall in Columbia, who happened to be going to HCC like me. Gave him a card and he said 'Cool, I've seen your stickers around'. I think he means DCMM decals on other Mini's.

Hopefully he'll drop by here and say HI.

Hey, that was me. I believe that was the morning that I almost got wiped out by an Expedition that ran the stop sign at Grant Rd. I got to see first hand how DSC works on a slushy road.

Every morning I see anywhere from 3 to 5 MINIs on that stretch. Usually two CR/W, one EB/W, and sometimes an orange convertible. I remember seeing you a few times. I gave up waving after the first week because most of the other drivers simply seemed confused by it.

This AM I saw a BRG MCS with a large "37" decal on the doors parked by the side of the road on Davis Ford Road (Manassas/Woodbridge border), right near my house. I was going to stop and see if you needed help but I didn't see anyone near the car. Hope you didn't break down

CR/B MC?S? with black bonnet stripes coming out of the shopping center in Newark with Sears and Pathmark Thanks for the Wave! (You looked like my old friend Sarah from my freshman year at UD, if it was Sarah, AH! I didn't know you were "motorin'" too!)

A spirited drive down I95 for the morning commute with a fellow MCS Dark Blue I think? Thanks for the wave too!

Guess its me even though I have a BRG MC not S but I do have Christmas lights and live off the Prince William Parkway. So it might of been me unless someone else put lights in there Mini Where the multi-colored lights and ran on both sides and the back near the top of the windows?? And a wreath on the driver side back window too!

Here are some pictures!

Matt,

That's awesome. Nice job.

Oh, and to add to the thread... on Saturday Sally and I tagged a LY/W MC parked on a side/service street to Lee Highway, between Nutley St and Cedar Ln. I've actually seen it parked there for a long time now (usually on lunch break from work), but never stopped to tag it. Oh well, done now.

And then there's this...

Marina? ANOTHER loaner? Wow, your MINI is in the shop more than you seem to have it! What is it in for this time? The glovebox?

Christmas Eve about 6:00 PM corner of White Hurst Freeway and M Street. You: Red MINI with large ***** number 37 on door. Lots of other stickers. Your car looks like a special edition I haven't seen before? Nice ride, didn't have a chance to get your tag. Me: not in the MCS, but driving out minivan (7 people just don't fit in the MINI!).

Red convert

Very late Christmas Eve, Alexandria VA... You red 'convertible'. Matching red outfit and huge white beard. Interesting mods... Looked like 120 inch runners in place of wheels... 8 normally aspirated reindeer...

Was going to follow and say Hi, but you parked on a roof!

Merry Christmas!
