We sure managed to take our events to new levels of excitement!

Great MINI friends, nice atmosphere in the historic Decker Hotel, good food, fun and games, watching Shrek on the big outdoor screen — and (oh by the way) how about an F1 tornado that managed to pass within a half-mile of our dinner location in Maquoketa?

Thankfully we and our MINIs emerged completely unscathed save for a previously anticipated rain washing, and the weather cleared dramatically allowing us great conditions for the movie. Our loitering at the hotel while waiting for the rain to pass facilitated an unplanned, rousing game of Apples-to-Apples (TM) in the hotel lobby!

It was great to welcome our new friends Leslie and Jim into the EIM fold!
