Those kids should grow up fast, they are messing with your MINI time.

I washed with mystique and hydro'd the MINI today, spent some quality time with Scooter after moving the last of the rock.

Now I notice a lot of cloud out over the mountains, guess it is guaranteed rain for the meeting and drive tonight, bring it on. I'm ready with a clean MINI.

The state of "Clean" is more transcendental and fleeting than one would wish Grasshopper.
Newton said it best when he stated that Entropy is always increasing. What I think he meant by this was that clean cars always get dirty again.

Philosophy of the MINI owner, clean it and it will rain. We need the water on our yards.

Teachings, of the way of Mini....

Chuck:

Don have many white hairs...

Many white hairs = great wisdom.

Chuck, who then are you calling, "Grasshopper"?

Not = great wisdom, just a rough early life in the fast lane.

Thanks for the suggestion Tommy.

Baby sitter still sane/alive

Sounds like I missed a great evening!

We survived the baby sitting ordeal... I think.... No Padded Room woken up to this morning....

Good meeting, a great evening and a very nice ride. Some pictures here.

Also a few pictures of lunch with 03 and minidamoocher at JBH.

Guess we will have to see about getting a sonic meet up here with a drive for the northern MINI folks.

It's not the years, it's the mileage! ;P

Sorry we couldn't be at the meeting against this month. Health issues get iffy sometimes. I'm rather looking ahead to the babysitting thing too. My daughter and her fiance' are expecting their first the end of October or so. My god, a middle-aged woman with an adolescent mind and a little bit of money to play with. That kid is going to be in serious trouble... or should I say my daughter will be!

Hopefully we'll be taking delivery of the Oxy Blue in a couple weeks. We're also looking forward to meeting everyone who attends MitM in August!
