On this episode, I am  report on a short holiday from St. Simon's Island - just off the eastern coast of Georgia.  I discuss what has been happening around the Classic Mini Community and just some pontification on life in general.  Appreciate the small things (like your Classic Mini) and don't sweat the big stuff. Cheers!
