TGGRRR (Ali) Posted December 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Are we going to be able to get to the staging area from P tuning? I just looked at where P-Tuning is on the map, and they are past the end of the parade route, which means for us to get to the staging area we need to drive up the parade route. Do we know what time they are closing the roads? Corey has a map and we are so early that we'll be able to get there. That's why we're heading over so early Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted December 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 That was a blast. Corey organized us perfectly and the crowd loved the MINIs. I think I'll be shouting "What do you get when you cross a snowman with a vampire" in my head for a while. That and Hornaments!!!! The walkers were fun, the crowd was fun, the MINIs were awesome.

1975_mini Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Thank you all for all your efforts in decorating your MINIs, and braving the impending weather. The rain held off just long enough, and it was overall a great success.

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted December 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) I think Corey walked the route at least 5 or 6 times while we all road in our warm cozy MINIs Good thing he's in shape Edited December 6, 2014 by TGGRRR Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isherri Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Words cannot express how much fun I had! Thanks Corey for all your hard work and for coming up with such a fantastic theme.

You and Caylee ( the middle one) will hit it off. Make sure you keep up on your boy band knowledge, if they a cool today. They are likely gross tomorrow. 1975 Mini 1000, 998cc A+ w/ K&N air filter, 10" Mamba wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edge Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 That was indeed a blast, in spite of the very early start to the day. Thankfully I was able to recover this morning. I think we were very well received by all - I only wish I had printed twice as many jokes as I did... and I accidentally left one bag of jokes unused in the car! I will admit I am relieved I didn't have to listen to boy bands (or boy band knowledge) along the parade route. Thanks again to Corey for the idea & planning and to everyone for the great job on the decorations - especially to Ali for covering for me when I couldn't make the planning party last weekend. :embarassed: "Mr. OEM" - 05 JCW (TK, GPIC, SS, GPTA, R56 RSB, StBr, R56 BBK, GPWhls, SV, RS, R56 GSI, IES, StrWhl, GK, HG, LBIT) MCS, HB/HB, Packs: 1, 2, 3 & 4.
