    I cleaned the garage around mine... Still too much of a mess to bother trying to show it. :(

    Swapped winters for summer, a bit dicey so early but what they hay. Then a nice bubble bath and put in the wind deflector. Time for some top down weather. And of course the wife wants the car tomorrow for sunny and 70:(

    Got it dirty! Took a 2 1/2 run to the airport to pick up the wife and stopped to see the grand kids on the way home. I am kind of amazed at the amount of kamikaze bugs that ran into me.

    I promised mine that she would be getting new brakes, sensors, wipers and an oil change real soon. Just gotta order the brakes.

    Washed Babs Skooby the clubster, boy did it need it. Found that some nice Bozo put a scratch down the passenger side. I've got most of it polished out.

    Went down to Agrium and parked my MINI amongst a bunch of Landscaper trucks and bought loaded the boot with 4 50lb bags of lawn fertilizer and moss control.

    Yup...it's that time of year. My yard works on the golf course schedule.

    Cleaned it up in hopes of getting it sold. Tired of mini and BMW! That incident with the local mini club has left a real sour taste that I am willing to get rid of.

    Oh I'm definitely in clubbed and forever will be from now on but that experience with that club and people that I thought were friends has ruined my mini ownership desires. It's so bad that I really have no desire for anything mini related not even MOTD!
