What did you do with your MINI today?

Happy Valentine's Day/Retirement to your wife!!! She's free to join us in North Carolina now!!!:wink:

 

walked past it going to the Jeep. Not sure I could get it out anyway. This is looking out of my garage with my wifes JCW in the pic.

 

On Tuesday I waited patiently with my nose pressed against my window while the snow meltedbrr :mad2:. Warmed up from 22 degrees yesterday to 45 today. The warm weather mixed w/ heavy rain melted the snow in a day. Once the snow was gone I took the MINI to get new tires. (NO MORE RUN FLATS!!!!) Ended my day w/ a long spirited drive though the curves of South Salem, Oregon. :biggrin5: Oh and a nice tall beer :beer at Mcmenamins (Thompson Brewery and Public House) McMenamins - Thompson Brewery & Public House Home

 

My son and his family just moved to Salem, they love it.

 

I drove to work while listening to a Grateful Dead concert from 1974.

Now it looks like its gonna start snowing any minute outside. :cryin:

 

Walked past mine & marveled at all the dirt on it. It looks like I drove a couple of stages at the Monte. Oh how I wish that was true.

 

I swear mine is starting to look like a freaking salt lick. All I want is a few above freezing and dryish days so I can wash it.

 

Hi-lo road? Hehe

 

Got it stuck in the snow after dodging a mini van that swerved into my lane. Oh well, at least no one, including the mini, got hurt.

 

Went out in the new freshly falling snow to a big parking lot and hooned around a bit.

 

We blocked off a right merge lane in a traffic jam coming out of PRB (People's Republic of Boulder).

 

Ha, near there, Was blastin up and down skyline and liberty.

 

Went motoring today, and crossed another MINI Milestone.

 

South River Rd to the ferry is a great drive too. I miss Salem......ok maybe not so much!

 

We went to the gym, then Rogue got a bath and a towel dry, then this evening over to Texas Road House with a friend... so I can over tip my friend, who waitresses there, and is putting herself through nursing school. Oh, and waved at a half dozen MINIS while motoring around today, all the while dreaming of heading to the Dragon in 10 weeks...... a perfect day.

 

Well, after a few beers, I took a couple pictures.

Not that I needed the beers mind you, but since the wife went to the casino, I had ta do something to pass the time. :beer

 

As a follow up, she's home. And she's a winner! Look at all those Benjamin's!!!

 

OOH AHHH Shiny! And nice flag! Congrats on the loot, too!!! Perhaps your wife will buy breakfast then??? :donut1:

 

Nice ride, nice garage!
