In all the hustle I failed to share a "happy accident" we had on the Biscuit & Gravy Drive on Thursday morning. We contacted the chosen restaurant a couple of times, including the day before to make sure they were prepared for us. So here we are off on the first drive of MITO with 30+ MINIs only to arrive to a closed sign on the door. Thank goodness for Google, we found a nearby restaurant and gave them a call...to our surprise they said "come on over". We arrive to find a welcoming staff and they seated all of us. They took excellent care of us, the service was wonderful and the food delicious. Come to find out they had only been open 2 months, but you would not have known it. So the outcome of this "happy accident" is we now have a new Biscuit & Gravy drive destination. The Big Biscuit

My last "Good Morning" post for this year.

Chris and I would like to thank everyone for attending MITO, and hope you had a great time. We loved meeting all the new folks, and hope we see you again next year. What makes MINIs in the Ozarks a great event is having such an awesome group of MINI owners attending each year.

Now lets get down to business and report the numbers:
228 - Total registrations
140 - MINIs
110 - First-Timers

The silent auction raised $1,000 to be donated to the Good Shepherd Humane Society.

OK MINI car show raised $305 for the Flint Street Fellowship Food Pantry

The MINI Skirts raised $1,662 for People Helping People

Now we will catch our breath, for a little while before we start planning for next year. Motor on!

P.S. The dates for next year are October 21-24, 2027. The host hotel has blocked rooms available to reserve now.
