Bessie was welcomed back by the staff of Gus’s Drive-in, East Troy. We enjoyed dinner and a marvelous cone of Blueberries and Cream. Gus’s custard has a nice light consistency that was quite lovely. The Milwaukee MINIs toured in from all corners to enjoy the cool fall evening. View Photos…

By a lucky turn of events, I happen to be the #6 entry for a design contest on North American Motoring. AutoXCooper.com is offering to sell the top three designs on his website. The winners get $10 for each set sold. Take a look and pick a winner! And if you’re feeling particularly generous, you can buy the design for your MINI! I could really use the money. Vote today!

The Milwaukee Minis club gathered in great numbers for Pop’s Custard in Menomonee Falls. Luckily, there was just enough space for all of us and the regulars. We had dessert alfresco. The flavor of the day, Chubby Hubby, was Jenny and my pick. Our chocolate custard was chock full of truffles and nuts. I’ll certainly miss these evenings when summer is over! View photos…
