No worries. Sometimes it's hard to tell on here. lol

 

I knew that once upon a time. I knew a lotta things once upon a time!

 

Ok...I just realized that I was staring at Bella's button!

 

Its nice to have our thread back to its usual level of banter!

 

Yah..it was getting pretty serious there for a while! Count on the Database Man to get us right back on track!

 

Thanks! but its even in person that it doesnt look that color.

i sometimes question it *shrugs*

 

Maybe you should adjust the automatical color on your glasses?

 

Ok...It's Friday, and this afternoon I begin my journey to the south. If you see a NFR with Manitoba licence plates...pull me over....I'll be pulling through to San Antonio...then over to Vegas....then thru CO back home eventually (maybe)...

 

On your way through AZ, if you see CARJOY, you better do the same!!

 

If you take a wrong turn and end up in Ohio, I'll be driving a green minivan there next week!?!?!

 

I'm sure you'll be easy to spot in that!!!

 

you'll be able to spot my grumpy scowl miles away! nothing like driving a minivan at the main office in Dayton on your anniversary! aaaargh

 

Ok..I'll be pulling over all green minivans! See you on the flipside!

 

have a blast D!

 

That's some road trip! Have a great time!!

 

Hollar when you get to Dallas, D. I'll PM cell number.

 

Thanks all. We're in San Antonio and safe now. Got through the storms in OK & Kansas without getting sucked up or hailed on! Wheew! Now all I have to survive is 1 week of work here! Then the rest of the road trip!

Only saw 4 MINI's on the road! No NFR's, but did see one silver with black roof, and one of those Coop lightning bolt designs on it!

 

Glad to hear you are safe and sound. I enjoyed San Antonio when I was there. Like the river walk.

Hope you have a good week!

 

Oh yea, the Riverwalk! That's pretty nice. I'd recommend the barbecue place (quite serviceable by our yankee and north-of-yankee sensibilities). And there's a fancy hotel right on the riverwalk, which as of a couple years ago, the restaurant had blue umbrellas and lighter wood furniture--maybe not worth the expense for lunch or dinner, but worth the treat for a nice brunch! But regardless of where you are, lots of Lone Star beer!

 

I can't find the fancy place...it might be Biga, biga.com...which I think is at the Omni...I'm not sure

The BBQ place is The County Line, countyline.com

 

Glad to hear you all made it down safely!! What out for all that lint in Texas!!

 

Lint...hahaha...we haven't talked about Lint for months now! Love this 100 degree weather! Aaaaahhh..maybe they can just send all my stuff down for me?

 

My MA emailed today to let me know that "Buster" had arrived 3 days earlier than expected. Will take delivery Thursday and get pics uploaded ASAP. Still trying to decide on bonnet stripes (if at all, then, black or white) and how dark to have windows tinted. State law says 32% but I have 20% on my truck windows and have had no problems.

 

Excellent news, Bama! Good luck tomorrow and have fun getting to know Buster!

 

Cool Bama!!

Am undecided about stripes too. Thinking of the getting black V shaped ones. Definitely want a matte black/black checker roof though. Just need to find the right shop to install it for me.

Getting my windows tinted Friday. Going with 35% all around & 15% for the sunroof. Am pushing it abit with the 35% as 50% is the legal limit here. But I want my mini to be cool... as in temperature... though am sure she will look cool too.

Be sure to post some pics!
