No snows, Mark? No problem--that just makes it more exciting!

Whelp, we finally shopped! Have a good half-MINI load to contribute to everyone else's loot. We had some woman in line behind us thanking us profusely for this plan. She said she's from Rochester originally so was even more grateful.

This IS a good thing folks. I'm looking forward to seeing you all. Unfortunately, it's not going to work for Jill and Carmen to come to this one (I don't think Carmen would be allowed into the Toad). So we'll have to do an outdoor dog-oriented event sometime this winter...

Mark - Since I will be driving MiniMo with her new Blizzaks this year, you are more then welcome to use my truck and put the you MINI in the dump bed. I really will fit. I was crazy enough to measure one day.

Hi All! Since Scott & I have been out of the loop looks like you have all been busy! I had back surgery on Nov. 11th & Scott just had shoulder/arm surgery again Dec. 15th. So we've not been too much fun!

Engine 12 is my old digs right down the street from where I  grew up On Wyand Crescent. Brings back memories! I hung around there a lot in my youth!

We would love to join in - Hub says it depends on the weather - Scrooge has Klownkrr all wrapped up and put away for winter & he's not thrilled about taking him out again. (I'm working on it!) 

Anyways - Obviously since I just heard about this from YellowMini today we don't have a gaggle of toys, but would be able to contribute a few on our own if we come. Any other details we might need to know? Thanks & hopefully I can convince ScroogeMcMini to do it.   Hope everyone is well and having a wonderful Holiday Season so far!
Hugs!

Oh boy, did we just go nuts! MiniMo' back half is full of toys. With everyone chiming in I think this year will by far out do last year by members, MINIs and toys.

KlownCar - WOW. Nice to hear from you but sorry to hear about you two. Hope that you can make it with or without the MINI. Toys - we have plenty I'm sure.

Wow--lots of activity!

Klownkrr--please come, at least to the Toad if not to the PTF. We'll take you with / without MINI. You and Scott sound like you could use TLC--don't push it. Just come for the sociability and a smile!

Mitch, I was a bbaaaaaaadddd boy! I didn't print a window thingie before I left home. Now I'm not going to have access to any printer (unless I use Crayons (TM)). Any chance you'd print one for me too?

It sounds like we'll have one, if not two news stations there. The folks at PTF told me they'd try to get Channel 10 there, but couldn't promise it. So, if it's a slow news day, we'll probably have both. If there's 'breakiing news' (besides ours), we'll probably have neither. If our group IS the breaking news, that's probably not good...

You may not want to have me come along if you want to avoid becoming breaking news...I'm on a bad streak! (and a breaking things streak!)  Found out today that my finger is not healing properly, so I have to see an orthopedic surgeon next week.  I'm super duper bummed out!!!

Ahhh, that doesn't sound good Holly! Maybe Scott has some "pointers" for you--if I remember correctly, he had his own finger issues about a year ago...

Seriously though, I hope the doctors are wrong.

Damn horses...

Rudolph red-nose sounds perfect for the M3, except the MINIs might kick Rudolph to the end of the line.

We shouldn't have any trouble seeing tomorrow...

Well, the x-ray looked the same as four weeks ago, which was definitely broken.  And the pain has been getting worse.  I'm going to have a pity party, and welcome anyone that will bring liquor.

Going to throw Miss MINI (aka license plate, HPST GRL) through the wash tomorrow and head downtown. See you all then!! Lauren & Matt

M isn't on cinder blocks, it is just that I put it on the lawn and it is very slippery at the moment =(

Alright Lauren! That is awesome!

Tedscar is filthy! Best car wash (probably just to rinse) between Naples and Rochester?

If I don't dry it, will the seals freeze tonight?

Ted call me when you are going through Canandaigua we can meet up. We could maybe even meet at the car wash? There is one up on 364 near my apartment.

Hey Everyone--thanks so much for your enthusiastic participation at the Toy Drive! It was great to have so many of you come out to play, and we are definitely on "upward trend", both in terms of MINIs present and presents present. I think we do a good thing and I know we have a good time! You're all awesome--thanks so much!

(pics to come soon...)

Kim and MightyMo - You both did a fantastic job organizing the day! Brian and I had a lot of fun. I took a few pics (not as many as last year). We saw everyone on Fox news last night. They just said "a club" donated toys, but later on acknowledged that we drove our MINIs to donate the toys.
