I am bringing my son. But he is a bit of a traitor as he is coming to see the Lotus cars. I am still working on turning him into a MINI lover! Actually, I better not complain or he may stop helping me with the maintenance work!

Gary, We'll stop down and say hi before you take off from Farm & Fleet.
And we'll see the rest of you guys on Sunday.

Wow, what a great weekend at the Autofest!

Here's a link to my photo contribution...captions are included with each pic:

If I'm not mistaken, the BMW MINIs had the largest representation of any group at the car show. It was wonderful getting to see everyone and their MINIs. Super-duper congrats to Denny and Mike (second year in a row for Mike) for taking home the hardware. EIM rules!

Hope to see some of you in Holy Cross next Saturday. Here's wishing safe travels and loads of good times for those folks heading out to Colorado for MTTS/MITM!

[I must say that one of the highlights for me this weekend was visiting the Speakers on Saturday evening and getting a tour of Gary's studio -- what an absolutely amazing artistic talent he is ]

Great fotos as always Gary!
Congratulations to Denny & Mike!

I bet a Purple MINI would have won for sure. Maybe next year Linda.
