The Color of Yellow

I have had my 2003 MINI Cooper S since October 2002 and drove it throughout Europe for 5 years. Now retired from the Air Force, I thought that my MCS needed a friend so I decided on something totally different. Check it out!!!

That's quite close to the current Mellow Yellow (though call it what it is: Corvette Yellow).

Nice pair though, and that's not something I ever say to men!

Thanks! You guys haven't even noticed the personalized plates. I often am told that they can't believe that DMV allowed me the MINI plates. I have never been stopped by authorities on it though. If I ever do, I just explain to them that it just means... AWWW Way To Fun!

Oh, and on the Super Bee you may be thinking? Yea, I had to think long and hard what to get for the Super Bee. I chose TSCHUES. Which translated into German means "Bye"...missing one "S" though. That "S" is on the MINI!!! LOL!!!

add one more in to the retired AF list. 83-05 as an Ammo troop

sitting around that first winter out of uniform wondering what was ahead of us, we ended up back in uniform. my wife followed me around for the last 18 years of my career, now I'm the 'dependent wife' following her commissioning into the Army Nurse Corps at the age of 42.
