IMD 2009 Northern Illinois USA
« on: June 27, 2009, 12:18:45 AM »
I'll be doing an IMD event again in Northern Illinois - ours is still the only Moke we know if in the area but we carry on with plenty of enthusiasm.  We'll be having the event in Wauconda, Illinois USA - specific details to follow as we near the date.
Thanks,
Raine Ray

We are gearing up for the big day here in Northern Illinois - Tom and I plan to get in our Moke and enjoy the festivities of IMD.  We have not heard from any other Mokes in the area so we are going to go Moking and then we'll gather some friends for a photo around our Moke.
Enjoy the day - remember its not the number of Mokes but the journey.
Photo to follow later in the day.

Raine, Raine - what a wonderful sight!
A post from the States on this cold rainy night!
You do my heart good to hear of your jaunt
Through Illinois - with a moke to flaunt!

Let them see what it is that encourages smiles
as you traverse the highways and eat up the miles
We look forward to photos to show us the way
You celebrated International Moke Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cabby


Been there....
Done that....

Yep It worked.  Weather looks fantastic.  Good on you for taking the effort, where Mokes are in short supply!  Currently 2am here on the east coast of Australia.  I am sure others will comment favourably, when they wake up!
I think I remember last years effort by you.  You had more people present in your photos, no?

Raine,

Well done and I am glad it was nice weather for you but I also noticed the rent-a-crowd was down considerably on past years. :) I was at IMD in wet cold Melbourne looking at how few a people were there to look at the Mokes and thinking your rent-a-crowd would be more than we got for the day in the 'new hub of Melbourne'.

I got the email with the pictures fine and i am working on getting all this up on the website.

Thanks,
Terry
