Minis on the Dragon

Alex and I are heading over to the Blue Ridge Parkway at the end of this week to take the mini on the strip of the parkway they call the "Tail of the Dragon." Apparently this strip of road has about 318 curves in an 11 mile strip of road- either vomit inducing or wonderful... you decide.

The fact that we get to go with friends Patrick & Becky doesn't hurt at all. We should have a great weekend with the mini and thousands of other mini owners. I suspect that the new camera will be overloaded with pictures like this... and this... can we say parking lot?

Highlights of the weekend include a beer swap, midnight driving on the dragon and a drive-in showing of Cars for mini owners only. (Convo with Alex- Me: Do you want to go see Cars with the rest of the mini people? Alex: What cars? Me: You know, Cars. Alex: ... What cars? Me: You know? The movie? Alex: Huh? ... Ohhhh!!!)

I'm geeky enough to want to shout: I CANNOT WAIT!!

To honor the weekend of mini drivers (and because we're going to be asked) we've named the mini: TBD.

P.S. Gyre is so jealous!
