As this was our first time to MOTD (and any MINI event for that matter) I wanted to take the time to thank you all for a great event and a few folks in particular for making us feel right at home.

cabriopilot, first and foremost, thank you so much for you and your daughter's friendly guidance and companionship before and during MOTD. I'm quite glad we caught you at Best Buy that night!

Lisa@1FastMINI, thanks for the cabin offer (and Eddie's knowledge!), and thanks to joshamman for bringing your lovely pets to join us!

True Joy, we hope you enjoy your prize, particularly since we were your good luck charm at Monte Carlo night!

Pamelalala, thanks for pushing the Monte Carlo event, we had an absolute blast! Next stop, Harrahs!

ProfessorZoom, I'm glad we've got plenty of Geocachers in the MINI community, and we'll see you again next year!

To the Two (former?) Army Grunts who loaned us $20 at Soda Pops, I apologize that we never caught your names, but thank you so much for your kindness and companionship throughout the week.

And last but not least...

Mark, Edge, and everyone involved in putting together and running MOTD, we appreciate your efforts and the entire event was amazing from start to finish. We shall definitely be back next year!

-William and Liz
(and Butterbean!)

 

You're very welcome.
It was sincerely our pleasure in meeting you both and it was a reminder of why I'm already counting down the days till next years MOTD.

 

good to meet you at the geocaching event, I think we've got yet another new hobby now!

 

That was Jen (Hahnsie) that loaned you the money, I was the other grunt (and the former) but was pretty much down to just a few ones by the time I was through at Pops and the Filling Station.

 

Aha! Now I know who to look for at future events! Thanks

 

I'll second all the sentiment! Thanks to everyone we met for the open warmness. Hopefully the dogs weren't too much of a pain for yall

 

Pain!? You're lucky you left with the same number you arrived with! Surely they'd like Carolina weather more than Michigan, right?

 

William - I'm so glad that you and Liz enjoyed yourselves! We are glad to have found nice people to share the cabin with. Hopefully we will meet up again next year!

Josh - the dogs were absolutely not a bother! I really enjoyed having them around.

 

Are you kidding?
Wasn't it your dogs that found and rescued us on the Joyce Kilmer Forest hike?
You should be very proud of your doggies, if it wasn't for their keen sense of smell we might still be hiking in circles....

 

Whats that Tashi? Little Timmy fell in the river?

 

You are most welcome! I am so happy you were there and had such a great time! That's the best part of the entire event for me - I LOVE watching everyone enjoy themselves - smile after smile, the excitement, the fun! I just LOVE it!
