Had a great time! Nice run CooperCops! Glad to see so many MINIs out on the roads. Very happy that we went to see the 93 Memorial. And it was a rather nice ride home from there when we split off from you all. See you guys soon!!

3 CHEERS for COOPERCOPS!! Very well done!! AND, the alternate "scenic" route was great - weather conditions dampened enjoyment somewhat, but still fun!

We'll definitely have to get up there again sometime for a redo!

Thanks CooperCops again for setting this up! (And the scenic road on the way home, was wet, rainy, foggy, scary, and lots of fun! )

Tired now. 'Til next time!

Thanks again to coopercops for organizing this run. Definately well planned and not one wrong turn. Great run, and great roads I'm glad we stopped at the flight 93 memorial. I just got home now. i didn't go straight home after gettin back into town. Did a couple other things. I hope to see a good number at the parade, and if not next weekend for a couple things there.

That was cool talkin to you guys while you were on the alternate route home. Thanks to sally for keeping me company and lettin me run my mouth the whole way back so I wouldn't get sleepy. I think i talked her ear off.

I will post pics tomorrow. too lazy to grab camera from downstairs and then upload into computer and then into photobucket. i goin to bed now. see most of ya'll in the morning. Don't forget to wash ur dirty MINI's!

Grrrrreat Time !! Thanks to CooperCops for all the planning of that fun route. And thanks for the great job of leading the pack...nice job of motoring. The restaurant choice was also solid...nothin like good country cookin'. And the detour up to the Flight 93 Memorial was well worth it and something I'll never forget.

Too many of you to mention by name but meeting more of the DCMM members was the highlight of the day for me.

Okay, time to clean up that messy MINI out in the garage and try to make it look like my beloved "Bergey" again.

Can't wait for the next run !

Paul had his pants on his head and was blowing kisses at the driver of some truck last night on scenic 40. He even said so over the radio.

Thanks to everyone who made the run. We really enjoyed having you all up in our neck of the woods. We'll place another request for sunshine the next time and see what happens.

We're already thinking about a Spring 2007 "MINIs - Almost Heaven" WV run, hopefully minus the cattle truck.

Thanks for setting this up - it was a great run CooperCops. I had a lot of fun, and yes the alt. route home was exciting. It was cool to meet so many new people as well.

I uploaded my pics here. Small sample below.

if we'd had better weather, it would've been the perfect run. Tons of fun roads, but also the awe-inspiring memorial site. The foliage was still pretty as well.
Byron and Sue, you guys are the best ever!!!

P.S. moo
