Van Dusen ABFM

[GreenThumb]

Hey all!

Anyone planning on attending Van Dusen this year? I know it's a bit early to ask but it's nice to get all your Mini's in a row, or is that ducks..

Yes, Patti and I are planning to go to the ABFM @ Van Dusen. Where and what time should we meet to travel north?

Marian and I will be heading north on Friday the 16th, late morning (10:00?). We have a bad habit (quarterly) of staying at the River Run B&B in a little town right on the Fraser River called Ladner, about 20 min away from Van Dusen.

BE AWARE! THIS B&B IS VERY ROMANTIC! CAN CAUSE PREGNANCY!

We can certainly adjust our tour time to join others.

So are there any Mini people going up on Sat. morning? Sadly some of us have to work on Fri. But thinking about it, I wouldn't like to get pregnant from some B&B, in a strange town, over the border, in some other country Don!

Steve :^)

Patti and I are going up Saturday morning, and thanks but no thanks Don, geeting pregnant is the last thing I need now.... But go ahead and have fun with that.

In the past some of us have met Saturday morning at the Smokey Point rest stop just north of Marysville, for a 7AM launch. Chris Miller and I plan on doing just that, so anyone else that wants to join us, be there a bit before 7.

Steve

[Nimbits]

Patti and I will meet you guys at the Smokey point rest area by 7 am.

Friday or Sat?

I'm off Friday by 2 and would love to go up that night but if I need to do more work on the car it will be Sat morning, if I leave at 4am from Port Angeles I'll be at the rest stop by 7am......ouch.

Hey everyone,

I'm not sure how many Miniacs are coming up north for the ABFM on Sat. but I will be at the first (and only) rest stop past exit 266 (Grandview exit) at around 7:00 am. If it's too early give me a call at 360.201.5945.
It would be nice to see lots of Mini's driving north!
