two MINIs from the Vancouver BC area delivered 2 bootfulls of toys to the Vancouver Christmas Wish Toy Drive.

 

Awesome!

 

Made me laugh. Apparently his boot was so attractive that a dude in an Evo had to take a picture of it when we were stopped at a light.

Somebody’s jealous.

 

Wel...duh!

 

Yeah...what's with that I had some Broad do that to Molly the other night!!

Oh Sorry forgot Topic!! Molly and I went to our 1st Presidential Duties Meeting, our 2012 PDX MINI Event Planning Meeting, I was not the organizer, but I did print out the Calendars for the Board!!

 

She took me on a Toys for Tots Mini run to Mini of Baltimore, where we donated a toy. I won the $100 GC raffle! From there did a run through Baltimore and Howard counties. At one point Giggles and the sweeper got stuck behind a Jetta carrying two large Xmas trees and going very slow. We lost sight of the rest of the group (12 other Minis) . They had no place to pull over to let us catch up. Just when we thought we'd have to simply meet them at the pizza place, we came across them repeatedly circling in a round-about!!!!! Omg, lmao. Vehicles trying to enter the circle had to yield to traffic in the circle. Let's just say, most of them were...um....upset. Some of them were incredulous. They ended up circling 4 times!!!!! This was a first Brilliant. Wish it was video taped....

 

I was gonna say - a video tape would have been awesome. Especially those that didn’t have the right-of-way! We did that in a parking lot once with about 15 MINIS after we spelled stuff with our cars. I never laughed so hard in my life, although I will say that making that circle stop (or getting out of it) was a chore...

 

Yes!! Thank you!! There's no accounting for taste

 

Trigger hauled home my Christmas tree today. It's almost 8 feet tall, and fit inside!

You thought it was a regular tree?

I had to drive "slow" on the way back. It was like a giant G-meter.

 

Das Cooper took me on the MINI of Concord Holiday Lights Rally.

 

Today the Mr. Beanmobile has given my family the biggest smiles for being named the spotlight of the month at MiniUSA. very Cool!!!

congratulations! You totally deserve it!,

 

very well deserved

 

It got me a big smile and a thumbs up from another.
Didn't know the people they just liked the car.

 

Gotta love when that happens! Were they even in a mini?

 

No they didn't have Mini's. One was parked behind me the other was just walking down the sidewalk. They are a fun car to own.

 

Oh, yes they are! I actually look forward to my commute! Which mini, color, etc did you adopt? What's it's name?

 

When I was 12 years old in 1970 I learned to drive in a 1960 Mini. First car I owned was a 1972 Mini. I had a silver 2003 Cooper S for a while and recently adopted a 2008 Astro Black Clubman S. Haven't come up with a name yet.

 

Betty was driven to NY on Friday during rush hour. There was no traffic. George Washington Bridge was not crowded and there was no delay. Made it in a little over two hours. Usually 1/2 hour. Someone must have called and told people to stay off as Betty was coming. We were smiling from ear to ear.

 

Wow! Always did double takes as Minis whizzed by. I'm 58 and this is my first Mini! So glad I took the plunge

 

SWEEEEEEEEEET, that will probably never occur again...it was an anomaly...totally twilight zone....

 

Giggles,

That's what I said. I think that everyone went to the malls. instead of going home. We were amazed. 45 minutes early for our destination. I agree with your comment about doing the double takes but know we are the ones being double taked at. (LOL)

 

How about "Astro"?

He made me grin like an idiot. Had to run some errands and there weren't a lot of people out so I got to zoom around instead of being stuck behind slow pokes. Opened he window and turned up the tunes. Fun!
