Mimi takes a vacation - Astoria Detour!
March 28th, 2007
Dear Mum… Just a quick note. I was on my way up the hill from the bus station, when ooops… OH $h1t! I’m sure I’ll be rescued very soon. In the mean time - my new friend Anderson is keeping me company while we wait for the Coast Guard to rescue us.
Special thanks to my friend Kathleen for snapping this incredible photo and allowing me to use it. If you want to see Kathleen’s other amazing photos, check our her flickr and blog. Give yourself a few hours to take in her amazing talent! Thank you Kath! - Monica

Yikes, Mimi is famous!
March 28th, 2007Whoa! That street looks horrible! Whenever we would go to Astoria, the kids would make me drive DOWN 8th St. We all loved that hill, but this one would totally mess up the van. Maybe in the Element! :) I suppose a bike would be even better, as long as you don’t wreck. I’m glad to see Mimi has company in that hole!
March 29th, 2007Check out the video at KGW - scroll down and you’ll see the video links. You may want to reconsider taking you Element down that street (if there was still a street there that is!). :p
March 29th, 2007Oh I do hope Mimi’s parts don’t rust and freeze up with all the dampness! Would she need WD40 or would she prefer scented massage oils? When IS that Girl gonna get home??!! Oy!
March 29th, 2007Anderson cooper was a genius touch… :)
March 29th, 2007Isn’t it just killing you to have to wait so long for your new machine? The suspense is definitely killing me.
I can’t wait for you to report on what it’s like to so with an aqua Hello Kitty machine. So cute!
