Hiya, Friends!

I took delivery of Wicked Wanda, my new Jet Black/Jet Black MCS last Friday, and we're getting all geared up for the big Roadtrip!

I'll be leaving on 4/11 or 4/12, and will post daily here, as well as on my weblog at http://miniclo.blogspot.com

At some point, I'll figure out how to post pix, probably when I catch up to Yucca Patrol on 4/15 in Denver, where we're meeting with the MINI5280 Club! Yucca & I are both out-of-state members of the club. :smile:

So, stay tuned for our adventures in my little Wicked Wanda! Tee hee! I'm sure to have lots! :smile:

Cheers!
Clover

See you in May Clo

Travel safe and watch the brake-in rules

Do you remember those Maps of the US that they have on RVs? You should pick one up (for the scrapbook, not the car) and start filling it in.

I'll have the NC one for you when you get to the Dragon.

Wow, Clo, congrats on the new car! I hope your hubby will drive MiniClo while you're away for so long... Can't believe your trip is upon you already! It is going to rock.

Keep me posted on the dates you'll be in Denver. We'll try to set-up another get together on Clo's return trip through Denver for you two..

Clover,
Congrats and have tons of fun. What a BEAUTIFUL car. Had I known just how good the black/black combo looks, I might have decided differently. Congrats again and safe travels.

Congrats MINIclo on the new arrival. Enjoy the trip and make sure that you map out the car washes between here and there, cause you'll wanna keep it shiny!

Clo,
Congrats on the wicked one! it looks great. Have a safe trip! Looking forward to reading about it !

I have that same sweatshirt, along with the motoring jacket with the zipoff sleeves, maybe that would come in handy on your trip, you could zip the sleeves off for a quick little detailing! jk.. :smile:
