HCPark Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 It was great pleasure to meet all of you. This was my first event attending and everybody was so nice and kind. Meeting all ladies driving sticky Mini, I hope my wife could also drive manual transmission, ha, ha. Thanks so much for those who organized this.

kgdblu Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Hey guys...I realized when I got home, I had left my fireplace shovel behind. Did anyone pick it up, I hope? I don't need it right away obviously, but it's part of a hand-forged set that I'd like to keep together. BTW, the pics are great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poison Ivy Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Hey everyone. We had a really great time today, just sad we had to leave early to head to the airport. I just uploaded my photos and a short video of the MINIs all lined up on my facebook page for Lola (link in my signature). Also I asked Lona today when the follow-up BBQ would be to finish all the food... Aug Dinner maybe? Just Kidding. Again thanks to everyone who put it together. Amazing job as always!

teamholly Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Of all the days for things to come unglued, today was the worst!

Edge Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 That was fun! Thanks in particular to the folks who did so much of the hardest work - grocery shopping, setting up and grilling in particular. Yeah, you know who you are. Thank you for an awesome job. :congrats: Thank you also to the people who patiently kept moving their MINIs for some neat photo shoots - we hope to put some of the better shots up on the website soon (in the banner at the top). :top: One other thing - when packing up at the end of the day, I found that someone had left a camera case on the table in the shelter. The case was empty (except for a Harris Teeter receipt from that morning for macaroni salad and potato salad, amongst other things), but I saved it and took it home. It's a small black case, the brand name is "Lowepro". If it's yours, let me know and I'll bring it to the next (mutual) event.

Poison Ivy Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Oops that was me. I did bring potato salad and potato salad, and my dad did loan me a camera case, but I spent too much time taking photos... lol. Thanks for holding on to it for me.

Se7er Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Had a great time, despite the heat. I wanted to second Edge's comments and thank everyone who set up the event. I know these things are a lot of work to get put together. You guys did a great job and we enjoyed it very much! Posted a few pics from my iPhone, nothing fancy, but wanted to at least offer the link. -Justin [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] D.B.'s Facebook Page - facebook.com/DBMiniCooper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
