Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, MINI-ites, it’s that time of year again. We need to decide IF we want to do another trip this February, and if so, WHERE.
I will assume we have all answered the IF since last years thread doesn’t seem to die. That leaves the WHERE.
Being your intrepid, ah, something or other, I have been feverishly working behind the scenes with our Canadian friend Ross and we have narrowed down this year’s fare to THREE choices. Yes, there are many options available: we could drive to both the North Slope, and Ross says we can actually drive to FRANCE (more on that later).
However, I have decided to keep this year’s menu somewhat tame and mild (“Tour de Nord, lite”). Drum roll, please:
Choice 1: James Bay Road, to Radisson, again
Choice 2: Trans-Labrador Road, to Goose Bay
Choice 3: Tour de Newfoundland
Specific details of each choice is listed here
I would like everyone to please vote on one of the three choices. Actually, if you are SURE you CAN’T make it, please refrain from voting. If you THINK you MIGHT, go ahead and vote. And, if you want to vote the same as me, I will offer these fine words from Mayor Daley, of Chicago: “Vote early, and vote often.” I’ve set up a poll at NEMINI.org. Click the link to go there. Poll over at NEMINI.org
While I do welcome and encourage open discussion and electioneering for one’s favorite choice, I would like all to keep their vote a secret until after the results are tabulated. (We’ll have representatives from the accounting firm of Deloitte, Rover and Masseratti counting the votes in a week or so.) You’ll obviously be able to see the results before that, but let’s not discuss that detail on the boards until polling closes so as to foster unimpeded creativity of ideas.
I hope everyone is excited about a new trip, and I think Ross did a super job highlighting the info and working with me to narrow down the choices to a bite sized lot.
