    I really wish I could be at the dragon this year, but I have a family gathering to attend. It's only a 3 hour drive yet so far away. It would be so cool to meet many of you. Minis, beer and cigars are three of my five favorite things. I guess I'll have a good beer and a cigar on the beach while I wish I was there.

    Dropped some leds behind my air vents, on a separate switch so I can have them on when I want, tempted to get some sound reactive LEDs for the door speakers

    Organizing a drive through some twisty roads around the Vancouver BC area.
    Since nobody driving a MINI has responded, I opened it up to other cars of interest.

    If you're in the Vancouver BC area, you're welcome to join us. This Sunday...

    Motoring bird...followed me (I was driving my MINI, bird was flying) for about 2kms into the office parking lot and tried to follow me into the building.

    It didn't have a security pass so I didn't let him in.

    Sure hope it can be easily fixed, things like this just make me want to move

    to the top of a mountain and never come down (except to drive!).

    Did not drive my MINI today. I had pulled the Cold Air Intake filter out and gave it a wash, let dry and re-oil.

    While the filter was drying, I went to Vancouver BC's annual All British Field Meet. A lot of nice cars there.

    Yesterday I cleaned the inside of my car for a few hours. It was the fist time I cleaned the inside since the Dragon.

    I wiped down the outside to remove all the pollen and RainX-ed the windows.

    Taking wife to the airport today and I think I will take a long fun ride home. :lol::ihih:

    Got a replacement seat back for the Recaros I got a while back. Tomorrow might have a go replacing the repaired one... or let it ride until it fails. At least I have the back-up in hand now.
