WRAPUP: Great friends, great food, presents and a great way to wrap up the year. We had a big crowd of old and new MINI friends, and lined up the block with MINIs. Huge thanks to Taylor for again hosting such a fantastic party, and thanks to everyone in the Chicago MINI Motoring Club for making our club such a nice and fun place to be!!

Thanks to everyone who came. Had a great time. Who has pictures?
Many thanks to Taylor and his family for their wonderful hospitality. Also thanks to all those who brought the delicious goodies! Yummy! It was great to finally make it to one of these and great to see some folks that I haven’t seen in a while. I do have some pics, but they are still trapped on my camera.
