General MINI TalkShared experiences, motoring minutes, and other general MINI-related discussion that applies to all MINIs, regardless of model, year or trim.
We lost our fence and the yard is covered in tree branches. That was pretty much the extent of the damage. The MINI survived unharmed, other than some wet dog prints on the seat. We were lucky, though. I know someone who used to have a beach house on Bolivar Peninsula.
I have NOTHING to complain about, comparitively, but the remnants of Ike swept north, even into central New York state last night. It was really a crazy night; tons of wind, rain and lightning. This morning, we saw the results from the storm: downed tree limbs, thousands and thousands of leaves, and even entire trees. Power lines were knocked down, so therefore, lots of power outages around here. (Don't worry, my MINI was fine, tucked away safely in my garage).
But again, in the big scheme of things, I have nothing to complain about. Hope everyone on the coast is going to be alright.
