rickyr53 Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 waved a at BRG/W right in front of Ballston Mall today, got a wave back. He had a DCMM sticker.
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 This morning I was getting onto 395 north from Seminary, I saw a BRG with silver Clubbie and got behind him. Drove for a bit and looked in my rear view and saw a Mellow Yellow hatchback behind me. It was so exciting. We all stayed together till just past Glebe. I tried to wave when the Clubbie was exiting but she didn't look. I'm not sure if they were aware or not of our little caravan. Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 I tagged an interesting little MINI in Old Town Alexandria on Friday night. It was called a Checkmate. It was a first gen in pure silver, it had a checker pattern on the side, in front of the doors, and there was a little checkmate insignia on it. There was more but I forget the details now.

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 I was merging onto the beltway from Tyson's yesterday and who was on the beltway as I merged on? Craig in Archie!!! We had nice big waves and smiles, I tried to follow him a bit but he shot left to pass a dump truck and the whole closed up and I got stuck back there :banghead: Still it was a good sincere MINI wave, possibly the best wave I've had for weeks. :rock: Ali Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
cmcveay Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 I had an appointment over in Alexandria today and I parked in an underground garage. As I was driving in, I saw three MINI's. When I parked, I grabbed cards and tagged all three of them as I walked by. Lona and I met for lunch afterward and we watched two women stop and stare and take pictures of Archi. They came in and we ended talking to them for about 10 minutes. The daughter of one of the women is ordering a new MINI so we gave her a DCMM card and they took my email address. 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold
