Margaret and I headed out today (no MINI – topless in her BMW instead!), and joined many of our MINI friends at Howards drive-in for lunch: this was a stop I missed during The Great Ice Cream Run – organizer Robyn missed it too and so drove all the way up from NJ to join us today!
Howards had burgers and excellent fries, but better still ice-cream – and the sizes were crazy! Forewarned, Margaret & I only ordered a “kiddy” size … Thom, who pulled together todays gathering, stepped up to the “small” (but he did manage to finish it!); someone should have ordered a large, just to see how big it was!
MINIs and MINI friends everywhere, including a group picture (thanks for taking it, Brian!):

Congratulations are in order to you and Margaret for the two new canine additions to your family! 😉
Yeah, I didn’t know you had a sheep dog? Looks like you had lovely weather.
Yumm ice cream.. sheep dog is adorable.
Just in case anyone is confused by Theo’s comments …
The little dog, “Cooper”, belongs to Theo (standing, third from right).
The bigger dog, “Willy”, belongs to Ron (standing, far right) and has attended many MINI runs – I expect Cooper will follow in his pawsteps 🙂
Well, I did *something* right with that picture. Everyone is laughing or smiling and nobody turned their head or closed their eyes! Sweet! I wonder if mine turned out that well? 🙂
