Too cold!? it's never too cold to enjoy the fall foliage in the beautiful Smokies! What are you smokin'?
Heading out to the dragon in just a few for our first run.
Everyone else drive safe and we'll see y'all soon!
I grew up in a place where you can break a sweat outside on christmas morning. I just can't enjoy riding top down when it's cold. Plus I consider running summer tires in cold temps (especially on the a road like the dragon) a hazard to my health
I enjoyed hangingwith you guys for what little time i was there. garret, hate you got one of those nasty things called a ticket. you guys enjoy the rest of your weekend hence forth without any drama. talk to you later.
Well...wouldn't you know it? I couldn't resist the Dragon (or folks having a great time without me). I went to McDragon on Saturday and left Sunday around noon. Had an awesome time!!
It was great to see: JAHumphrey, Ron, smccoy, sheadlee, SC_Highlander, GamecockS2K and Beth, YELLOWJACKET, dead_bird and HuskerGirl
Hope I didn't leave anyone out and I put folks in order on how I saw 'em. We even met a wonderful couple from Oklahoma... Janet&Travis!
Here are my pics...
SATURDAY
Highway driving...on our way to the Dragon!
Fontana is all decorated for the Holidays!
Imagine Christmas morning at Fontana? Wow!
sheadlee, JAHumphrey, smccoy and Ron
Ron's doing...well, I started it...
There was a small motorcycle wreck that closed the Dragon...so I took advantage of a photo opportunity.
On our way to the top of the Dam...
SC_Highlander, sheadlee, JAHumphrey, dead_bird, Ron, smccoy, GamecockS2K and Beth

Sheila and the gang checks out a Lotus Eleven...
Later that evening...Kallan seduces SC_Highlander...
SUNDAY

JAHumphrey is setting the style for 2009...
Kallan is having a blast...
Ron is "quite satisfied."

Where is this?
Right on 129...it's past the Dragon (heading NORTH) and it's the new Tallassee General Store and Fuel Station...it opened not even a year ago. They made a helicopter landing pad across the street (129) in the old general parking area for Calderwood Dam...
