Last Sunday the Coastal MINIS motored up to Charleston. 4 cars left Savannah, and 10 joined up with us in Charleston, making a record total of 14 MINIS!!!!! We saw some old friends, and met some new ones. We had one newcomer, Paul from Beaufort drive up with us from Savannah in his brand new 2007 Cooper S.
Our trip was delayed slightly by a truck on fire on the side of I-95 that halted traffic for a little while. By the way, MINI sunroofs are wonderful for observing long lines of stopped traffic. After we finally got going again, we met up with our very patient friends in Charleston. We really appreciate them waiting for us in the hot hot sun! Then we motored over to Davis Island to a very nice restuarant for brunch. Afterwards we headed to a place called Turkey's where they had several imported classic minis. It was so wonderful to see how far our cars have come! For our final stop, Matt and Jimmy took us down the street to Ye Old Fashioned Ice Cream where MINI of Charleston treated us, because it was SO hot. Thanks guys, it was delicious!

Our next meet up is going to be on Sunday, September 2nd. Because of Labor Day weekend, we will be staying in Savannah for this one. We're just going to have a low key planning session of sorts. We're going to work on ideas for future trips, logo and sticker designs, etc. We'll still meet at Starbucks, as usual, and probably head somewhere in town for lunch. Anyone is welcome to come! We would love to hear your opinions on what you would like to see happen with Coastal MINIS. :)
Happy Motoring!
