I'm gonna meet ya'll on the way up.  It's easier for me that way.  Kathy or Dave... I'll text message you, or you can call me.  I'll be waiting at the 7-Eleven at the corner of Yorktown Rd. and Jefferson Ave.  I will make sure to be there no later than 7:45 a.m.  Will be a hop-skip-and-jump for me to get on the interstate.

Hi all, I regret to say that I'm not going to the vineyard this year. Too many other obligations. and a busy work week, last and coming up. I see you at the pub next time. Later, Randy icon_sad

I'd like to claim one of Randy's tix if still available .. I'll make a financial equiv to cost to the animal funds (since no time to shop for contributions) .. thnks!

Had a good time catching up with the HR MINI'ers .. and a few of the "club members in common" .. had not dined at Famous Dave's before, good selection ..

Thanks, Randy for the ticket and thanks to the "community effort" to be able to secure Randy's number to work that out .. see, friends workin' together for a common cause  icon_razz ... the animal shelter got a little bonus contribution that way! (even if JoJo did not find a home with an HR MINI'er ..  icon_sad)

See y'all again soon!

We had a real great time at the vineyard. And I agree with Susan, it was great seeing everybody. I wish more Tar Heel MINIers would have made the trek this year. The food was good, the wine was good, the band was good and the temps, well, not so good. But I think everybody had a good time. We collected a bunch of food for Animal Connections as well as a supply of leashes and collars as well as a few bucks. I know of one puppy that was adopted and Joe Joe almost became an HR MINI pup, but he'll no doubt find a home very soon! He was so cute.

After talking to Jacque, she offered to make a date change for us next year. She is well aware of the temps and what we had to go through. I really appreciate that. I'm thinking of an earlier event next year. The fall always seems so busy.

We had right at 40 MINI/Min's make the annual drive to the vineyard and that was an impressive number. It was great seeing that many MINI/Min's in my mirror. Especially the classics!  And the total MINI/Mini's count was 93 at last count. Mini's were still coming in when we were leaving!

Once I get the date, we'll start planning Cooper Vineyard 2011!

Glad you guys had a great time. My MINI was at home parked and covered while I was with the family at Busch Gardens. I will try to get to an event sooner or later
