    Today I just dusted my car. Tomorrow I am taking it out to have a little ding removed.

    Oh man...

    I know what it feels like when you can't get out of your MINI...

    Sometimes I get stuck too... :Thumbsup:

    Got the Rat all fueled up, packed, and ready to go... Minus the beer... I will pick that up on the way out of town tomorrow.
    Going to try and get out of work early tomorrow, so I can try and beat the storms that are coming over the mountains... Should be doable. :)

    Yeah BUDDY!

    So am I the first to leave or what?

    I am making a few stops along the way... One of my old army buddies is a cop in Kansas City and he is going to pull me over. I'm also stopping at another army buddies place outside of Mt. Vernon IL to say whats up. Then I have to be in Clarksville TN at my adopted family's place for a giant bonfire party like always when they find out I am back in town. And once the hangover ends, I have another cop/army buddy to see in Gallitan TN.

    Good news is, having the car loaded down with stuff makes it quieter inside... Bad news is having the car loaded down leaves 1/4" before tire meets plastic. :(

    Its going to be a fun ride, keep an eye on my build thread. I will post updates from (the side of) the road as I go. :)

    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.

    Just installed the Cabrio strut braces. I don't know if they will do anything beyond the rattles but for $40 they aren't too shabby.

    You poor fella...enjoying the beach and all that. However, you will miss my Cigar Salon Wed. night, and THAT is a pity, as it is my last one at MOTD.

    LoL. It's gonna be tough, but I think I'll make it. That is a bummer about the Cigar Salon, though. If I get around to fixing the a/c this week, I'll drive the MINI. There are lots of parking garages around Myrtle Beach.....
