I was so glad to hear you got Molly home before the HAIL started. That would have probably sent me over the edge ... Rain. OK ... Light snow. OK. Hail. Not OK ... Downpours are not fun, either.
Ooh, ooh. My MA JUST now e-mailed me (as I'm replying to you). Baby did not arrive today, but should arrive tomorrow morning. She'll let me know when she gets in--around lunch. Fingers crossed!

Sounds prefectly reasonable to me...you'll need those detailing supplies soon enough, and let me say I took grief for weeks around here because I did not have a camera at the ready (it was being borrowed....in Australia!! ). You are doing great!!!

Yes, yes! My MA e-mailed me that my baby did, indeed, arrive today! I am picking her up Friday! No jinxing, it appears.
Now, to locate a camera ... I have a camera phone, but cannot get the pics downloaded. Maybe can read up on that more tonight.
Thanks to all of you who put up with my whining over the past 9 weeks. I feel much better now!

Very exciting.....but you might not sleep too well the next two nights!!! Just sayin'.
See if you can find a friend (with a camera) to go with you and take some shots...that way everybody gets in on the pics.
Our MINIs look very similar, btw...same wheels even. I don't have bonnet stripes though. Anyway, have a blast!!!!!!

kay, so i almost had a heart attack today!! i was driving to the gym this morning, and all of a sudden i see an OXYBLUE MINI!!! an exact replica of mine. bonnet stripes, same wheels, same everything!! It was the first time i have ever seen another oxy blue in person! i thought i was hallucinating at first, and went into shock. I waved at the driver and.....they DIDNT even see me!!! it was only a 2 lane road, and they were on the opposite side. how did they not see me!!! i was waving frantically!! lol
an exciting day to say the least!

Thanks for the support, y'all. No, I won't be getting much sleep the next 2 nights ... I'll sleep on the way up there.
My hubby is getting a digital camera from a friend of his. I have PhotShop at work, so that'll work. Might be sometime next week before I can upload the pics to the gallery.
Gokartride, my baby is pretty basic, but I did order sport seats, the premium package, fog lights, and I also ordered boot stripes (to go with the bonnet stripes) from Aesthetic Creations. Hoping they'll get delivered and put on by Friday. If not, I'll go back up and have that done next weekend.
I am thinking of getting window tint, since it's so hot down here. Definitely want to do the sunroof, but maybe all the windows, too. Planning to do that my next visit to the dealer. Anyone have that done, and, if so, what type tint, color, etc.? I've been reading upon the different kinds, brands, warranties, etc. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I do this too every time I see an OB on the road...it really catches me off guard. Maybe it's good they didn't see you...imagine how wild and crazy that could have been!!!!
Now here's one for you....has anybody taken a pic of two privately-owned OBs in the same place? I'm not sure it has been done, although we almost had one when Blue Skies 05 came through town last year!!

I think Mini should have an oxygen blue day where all the OB mini's get together and take one huge picture! I don't know why it is not a popular color like some of the others! I always get comments on what a pretty color it is and I loved the color because you don't see any other car marker with the same color!

We used to see national numbers on stuff like this, but not so much now. It'd be really interesting to see the national (or even global) OB #s since it's a Cooper coupe only color and not available for the MCS, Cabrio (either model) or Clubman (either model).
Got MINI??? Usually when a new owner disappears for a bit it's a good sign!!!
