It'll be good to see you all again, too! Its been a few months.
Got to meet the Mid-American Miata club gang a couple months ago since I was driving the Miata most of the summer. That's another fun group!
Now I'm back in the MINI for the winter. New tires, new battery -- I'm good to go!

If anyone would like to bring new hats, gloves or mittens to the drive, I'm collecting for Operation Breakthrough this year. They are providing Christmas gifts for 3,000 children and many of them could use a hat and gloves.

Well, I'm still tentative, which stinks because I enjoyed this the last time I went (and it's in LS, about 5 minutes from my house!). But I have some dental work that afternoon and I'm not sure how I'll be feeling.
So the best I can say is if I'm not there when you get ready to leave, then don't wait on me. Sorry to be so difficult, but I won't know until right before the drive how I feel... Sorry.

Just got off the phone with Johnna, she is out of town and said we will evaluate the drive conditions as the day progresses tomorrow.
Stay tuned for updates.

I'm actually stuck in the snow in Vegas and at best, will make it back to KC late tomorrow if the KC weather is decent. Ugh. Will y'all keep each other posted tomorrow? Have fun if the weather holds out!matti the mini wrote:Just got off the phone with Johnna, she is out of town and said we will evaluate the drive conditions as the day progresses tomorrow.

All of a sudden, I'm iffy for this drive - my brother is flying in tonight and I have to pick him up at the downtown airport. Have fun if I don't make it and take lots o pics!

Seeing as the "Goose" is clean and shiny,and the wx is supposed to get nasty I think we'll pass on tonights drive. Stay safe , keep your MINI out of the ditches and your wheels right side up! Don't know if this ic PC or not, but a Merry Christmas to all of you.-Frank

I'm thinking maybe waiting a few days might be a good idea, not only because of the weather but just because a lot of people are having conflicts. I live just a couple miles from our meeting spot, and Mrs. MiniGeoff says it's not bad there yet, but reports are coming into my office of an oncoming ice appocalypse.
In any case, that moves me from a solid "yeah" to a wishy-washy "maybe" as well.
Maybe Monday or Tuesday next week for a reschedule?
