Dateline Cape May, NJ  March 28, 2014

There must be something significant about this date, otherwise I would not be writing a page in my blog about it.  March 27, 2014 was the date that MINI USA opened registration for MINI Takes The States 2014.  The opening of the registration site was delayed and there was a lot of chatter on Facebook about the late opening.  Finally, the site opened and Rich got himself, Carol and me registered, we are ready to go.  The red line on the map below is my planned route to San Francisco, while the blue line is the MINI Takes The States route I will be following from San Francisco to Boston.  Rich took the picture, so don’t blame me if it is hard to read.

Carol was also busy; she told me that all the reservations for the hotels are now completed, except for two nights in Wisconsin.  What difference does it make to me?  They will be in a nice bed and I will have to give up my comfortable garage in Cape May to sleep in a parking lot under the stars.  I am getting psyched to get going on the adventure and stop planning.
