What did your MINI do for YOU today?
Because she knows how much I LOVE my MINI, my friend and partner in our jewelry creating business, designed and made me a "I (heart) My Mini" bracelet. Done with beautiful Swarovski crystals, sterling clasp and sweet silver round letter beads. From the observer it looks like a very pretty silver and crystal bracelet, but I know what it signifies. She made it in my Clubman's colors!! She combined tiny black hematite beads (my roof color) with denim crystals (horizon blue!). If interested I can email a pic of it. She can fashion it in almost any color!! It is soooooo cute!!

Thanks!!
Hope to hear from you soon
I am hoping she earns me a commission on a MINI sale!! Hosted large party Saturday and ended up taking a guy for a ride in her. He was totally blown away, and is considering trading in his 2 yr. old SUV for a new MINI. My Justa Clubman impressed him with her quickness and handling....LOVE LOVE LOVE my Giggles!!!
Came back from Mt. Rainier ( all the hiking stuff fit fine with the seats down), and on the 100 mile drive home got 42 mpg according to my Scangauge.
Of course, there is a long downhill section from the Sunrise parking area which helped Im sure!
Beautiful day and much more fun getting there and back in my Mini than in my Volvo SUV!

Definatly did, it was screaming at me on the way home saying, "why did you take me here!!??" hahaha!, and actually the first time I carried a load in her, so I stalled it leaving the space...and at the red light after
. it was a fun venture, and I don't know if you notice, but that is 4, 32 bottle cases of water!! I was amazed!!

So wonderful getting together with other obsessed MINI owners, they "enable" us
giggles that was great but be carefull tickets are expensive!!!! (LOL) I thought about some of the things she could do for me. only when she gets here. Oh the thought of driving comfortably and grinning from ear to ear
so, so, so, tempting
My normal commute is up a flight of stairs. Can't get into trouble there or could I????? A couple of days a week I have to leave the second floor and go out the door. But, I get paid mileage (not too bad) from the time I leave the house until I get to where I need to go. When I get my MINI I just know I am going to want to leave my office everyday and take whatever we call her out for a spin.

Tomorrow, my MINI is taking me, the fiancé, two Golden Retrievers, the kayak, and whole bunch of summer stuff up to New Hampshire for a week. Last weekend, it took me to my first ever 5K, and the day before that, it took me and three friends to the Hammonasset River for some kayaking and birding. It's been kicking butt so far.
There are times that I wish I was back in CT. Lived there for 24 years and now down here in Philly. Our Mini (whenever she arrives) will take is back. I even have a book on the best drives in New England, Only pages I looked at were??????
Have fun up in the granite state, your MINI will love those roads (LOL)

Have not been treating my girl as she deserves due to 2 achilies tears on my personal wheels, no hand wash and weekly wax and of course a hydro bath. So saw a sign spoke to the owner and as we speak she is getting a slight detail wash, interior clean wax and full dressing for $30.00 she will sparkle as I take my other girl to a German beer garden tonight windows and sunroof open...........
My Mini got me pulled over today cuz she has been a very baaaaaaad girl recently~~~
Good thing is that the policeman fell for her and gave me a pass even without a written warning.
The Power of Mini
