Pics

I am looking for picks from My car. Of course it was parked in front of the Wired Bus. Hot Orange/ Blue Top/ white rims with "MINI Takes The States" on each side and white stripes down the front and back.

If anyone has them please post!
I was from Charleston/ with the Grill Car on to the NJ wrap up Party, it was in front of the Tent.

My plans for MTTS were dashed due to the death of my grandmother. I was only able to join in the festivities for about two hours during the Memphis stop. It has been nice living vicariously through everyone's stories!

Somehow I must have stuck around just long enough...my car made it onto the MTTS website for the Memphis stop!! I wish I could get a copy of the picture...it is the 2nd one from the top for the Dallas-Memphis leg. I knew those Beale St pics would come out good with all the cars lined up under the neon signs.

It sounds like *most* everyone made it without incident...

MINIUSA is uploading pics as we speak...

Go check it out on your leg, they are utting up the final legs
www.minitakesthestates.com

Then click on leg, and then on Photos on the left hand side. Maybe you made the Cut , I did twice.

Look for the "MINI Takes The States", Hot Orange MINI!

The grill car is now famous .

There is no MTTS Folder at the root, however, mcleonard, Krolyat, and ddminikc have all posted videos of MTTS in their folders.

My MTTS plans also evaporated when I came down with acute appendicitis a week or so before the legs I was supposed to join. I came home from the hospital on the day I was to drive to DC to join the event....

The photos and videos have been great - but I was looking forward to this as the high point of the year. Oh well - at least I am healthy and recovering.

Soooo glad that this came off well and everyone had a wonderful time.
