I received a reminder call yesterday about an appointment that I have late on Tuesday. I can't reschedule, so I won't be able to make the event. So sad!!! Dang it!!

Had a good time tonight at the drive. Saw some really nice MINIs and had some good conversation. I think some of the kids out there enjoyed our convoy as much as they did the lights, I had my window down a bit and heard "Oooh, more Coopers!" on a couple of occasions.:yeah::yes4:

Bully, thanks for the spotter cards and Laardilla21, good luck on the wheels search.

Sidenote: traffic was ridiculous and that wreck did not help.:nono: I knew there would be a lot of people but I wasn't expecting so many. Can you tell this was my first Christmastown Rally?

I concur... good time had by all. sorry I didn't get to chat with more folks but the kids keep us pretty occupied.
Had a nice twisty ride home through the backroads back to Mooresville (kids asleep in back.)

I thought I'd missed you but realized you weren't there once I got home and checked your sig. Don't worry, LB was well represented.
