I'm visiting family in Novato at the moment and have been enjoying the beautiful scenery up here. I've seen quite a few MINIs in the Petaluma and San Ansalmo areas over the past few days. Anyway, I have a Chili Red & White S with a Borla, Hamann wheels, Chrome S grill, silver M7 lower grilles, etc., and my license plate is "B4 BMW" so please flag me down if you see me - I would like to meet local people - I'll be around until Wednesday evening but my computer access is spotty.

 

If you have time you should see General Vallejo's Casa Grande adobe in Sonoma. It was built in 1834 and served as the headquarters for his personal empire. Most people in Sonoma have never been there, but it's a fascinating glimpse of how people lived and worked in a big rancho.

 

Hey Rick, I'll be scooting around Marin today - will honk if I see you :smile:

Too bad you won't be here over the weekend, a nice drive is set for Sunday with the Redwood Empire group

 

I went to Sonoma today but I was unfortunately in a Honda Pilot! Anyway, I counted eleven MINIs between Novato and Sonoma. Pretty cool.

 

Wow. Was that you? Problem is that I wave and wave and MINI drivers just ignore me. Guess I will have to try it when I my MCS finally arrives in May.
