Topic: Sun Fair Parade Posted: September/23/06 at 8:53am |
Good Afternoon to ALL!
I was going to try to make an event of this parade in Yakima but my schedule got hectic and I did not think that I would make it myself. But thanks to a co-worker I was able to get have the time off and participate in the parade with Aaron and his daughter. While wait to to embark we spotted several Mini's and tried to entice them to join us but none were able to. I did however give out a Spotted Card and was informed that we need a club in town. (maybe?????)
Here are a few pics......
This Haney Truck and 8 trailers has been at the parade for the last few years and I thought that it would be neat to show everyone.
OOOO La La! Look at those beautiful Mini's!!!!!!
It's funny how small that huge truck looks when compared to a Mini Cooper....lol.....
OOps, should have shown this pic before the others

YakiMini -
Looks like a fun event - glad you were able to participate. Enjoyed the "setup" for the last picture too!
Hope you are able to get some more MINI owners active over there. Several of us northenders are having occasional Saturday morining get togethers to talk MINI's and get aquinted. Might be something to try on the dry side...

If you can get something going I would love to come thru Mt Rainier more often and go over to your side. I'm sorry we couldn't come for your parade. Hang in there and eventually tradition will take hold.

Rumor has it that the name will be MINI Clubman. I heard (no two sources say the same thing) that they were looking at 2009 for release. Or is he planning on getting the very first off the line in Oct/Nov 2008?

If we're still in area, my wife'll want to talk with him after he takes delivery. She's/We're planning on getting her MINI in 2009/10, and it will either be a Cabrio or Clubman. No base model for this gal!
