    It helps me pass the time while I go crazy waiting for the new baby to arrive.

    That's good to hear. My Roadster S is currently being painted at the Oxford factory. Car should be fully assembled and ready for shipping by September 13th. It too will head for Baltimore - I'm glad to see it's only about a week trip at sea. Once in Baltimore, my Roadster will be an hour's drive from the MINI dealership.

    Looking forward to your pictures on arrival!

    its going to take a few extra days for mine to be dropped off at the port...since i ordered mine from MINI of Tampa Bay its going to the Brunswick, GA VDC...i figure another week to 10 days from drop off to delivery at the dealer...more than likely pick it up between the 7th and 10th of Oct

    We're buying a house somewhere between Clearwater and St. Pete next summer. Must be within 5 minutes of the beach. We like the area between Indian Shores and Gulfport, probably near Seminole. I graduated from USF in Tampa in 1980 and I'm very anxious to get back to the Sunshine State! I lived off Belcher Road in Largo as a college student.

    We're vacationing at Barefoot Beach Resort in Indian Shores for two weeks in October. We have a realtor, so we'll check out a few neighborhoods around town. Otherwise, plenty of sun and chilling out. My Roadster will probably arrive just before we leave .... bummer.

    The new baby is in port picking up a few relatives for the journey to the new world. Sure wish they'd hurry up and get here. :mad2:

    My new baby is back at sea now. Sure wish they had an "express" ship instead of a local with several stops.

    The boat is out of tracking range right now but should be back on line Sunday or Monday. Delivery should be next weekend or shortly thereafter. Can't wait!

    Hopefully this is the last week of waiting, boat is due in port on the 18 and I have fingers crossed that delivery will be on the 21st. Then, the detailing fun can commence. :beer
