Leave a note on the car if you see it again. Not all GP owners know about NAM. They ought to!

GP # 1152 is mine. I was there for the Thanksgiving weekend and had it parked there up front. I got the card, then a friend and fellow mini owner told me about this post. Btw, as you can see I did know about NAM

Hey Gus, excellent

Hope you had a good T/Giving.

I would step out side and have extra Cigar's, in hope to see you and to make sure no one was messing with your MINI.

Thanks Scott. Yeah, we had a great time there.
I appreciate you looking out for my GP . I paid an arm and a leg to have it parked up front since I wasn't crazy about leaving it in the regular lot (they charged me a daily fee to have it parked on the deck). It was worth it though. The guys were really good about not touching/moving it, so I tipped them pretty much every time I came downstairs.
Oh and sorry you had to see it so dirty.....my cars are usually spotless but the drive from Miami to Orlando made that impossible
