I saw you go by in the Jeep. I thought you were just enthusiastic about seeing all the MINIs. :itsme: Right before you drove by, another prior club member came over to tell us he was in DCMM in 2005 but sold his MINI for a Camaro.

She really enjoyed the day. Thank you Ali.

Thank you everyone that came out today! The drive was great; to include the unexpected tour through the Giant parking lot. Even the weather was perfect. The Manassas National Battlefield staff gave us free entry (minus Mike). Then Wizzer suggested a great photo op at the "Brick House". Gute Fahrt Found out how far friends will go to make sure he gets into a photo! (Hope he feels better in time for the Pumpkin Run.). ...can NOT wait to see the pics... Lunch at UNOs was very enjoyable. Good company; good conversation! Again, Thank You to everyone who came out. Mom enjoyed meeting everyone and experiencing a terrific MINI adventure.

Please remember radios. And umbrellas.

We'll be looking for you!

This is a great location! I just test drove the route and was happy to discover UNOs is about .3 miles down the road from the Battlefield's visitor center.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a place to get a late lunch?

Sweet Frog Frozen Yogurt – 30 minute spirited drive – Fairfax Station Railroad Museum If you’re interested in a short run on Sunday, we have just the route. A new “Sweet Frog” frozen yogurt shop has opened up on Ox Road. Come help us support their new location. Afterward, we'll take a spirited drive skirting Fountainhead Regional Park and eventually stop at the Historic Railroad Museum and learn a little about hour local history all the way back to the Civil War. Because this event begins with frozen yogurt, it's a fairly short route and it ends with a big red caboose, it's very "family friendly"! Hope to see you there!

Craig is interested in taking some glamour shots in the parking garage tonight. If anyone would like some photos taken of their cars, please let him know.
-
Next will be the Joey Mods... it's a natural progression.
-
All of these lights and glow sticks arrived yesterday. They covered the dining room table. If Craig actually puts all this on the car, Archie will officially become the first MINI you can see from space.

No kidding!
