They look more like crows or ravens to me, but it's a fine shot anyway.

My 2004 Mini Cooper S has logged 157,950 miles from Panama City, Fl to the Keys, to Maine, Montana, Santa Fe, St. Louis and all parts hither tither and beyond...a simple 325 mile jaunt down to see Russ is just a walk in the park, a fast one mind you, but just a hop.

I trust you have waterproofed the chassis in order to drive from Maine to Spain. ;)

Looking forward to it, Chris. Besides, I owe you a lunch and a beer. We should get there Saturday afternoon, so give me some time to unpack.

No need: the Cooper S is guaranteed to go so fast that it will aquaplane the whole way!

Maine to Spain without pain!
