MOT’11 at the base

Weather at the base of Mount Washington turned out near perfect and once again we parked MINIs everywhere – and perfectly (skilled parking guide volunteers!)

 

Margaret drives GPMINI to the top, while I get a ride from Thomas of MINI USA!

Many thanks, Thomas – really nice ride! And well done Margaret for making Mount Washington Auto Road look easy 🙂

The King and The CodFather

On top of Mount Washington, in exhilarating 50+ mph winds!

Today was awesome for many reasons! The drive up the mountain was spectacular – even more so because I was chauffeured in the Coupe! The weather suddenly rolled in with clouds/fog and high winds as we approached the summit, and on top the winds were exhilarating!

The EyeFi App gives a thumbnail view of all transferred pictures, and it looks quite neat:
