Hello everybody...

I just want to share with you some of the pictures I took during my last trip to Northern California and the various MINI Approved Roads.

Enjoy!

Nice photos! If you pulled up just a little further, you could have had Paul Bunyan resting his foot on top of your MINI!

Love the tree pic ... have the same one with the same tree! Was there during Spring Break taking a nice trip to Eureka (nothing there) so headed back to San Fran then to Colorado once again. Unfortunately the pic is on my work computer (shhhh). I'll dig it up Monday and get it posted.

Cheers

Geoff

Hey Geoff,

You've got to dig out that picture from your computer and share it with us.

Thanks,

Hey YuccaPatrol,

I totally agree with you... When I started my trip, I kept encountering those type of road signs... I just took those as a dare and kept driving... I ended up near the California-Oregon border...
