Default One Last Visit to the Dragon

My sister is visiting for the holidays, so I convinced her to take her new Bimmer to The Dragon. What a perfect day -- sun, 50 degrees, very few cars, and only one LEO -- and he looked like he was napping. It is awesome having The Dragon all to yourself!

Her 328xi coupe is a pretty heavy car, but does nicely. The AWD is just amazing in the tight turns.

A very deserted Deal's Gap

A happy driver on Hellbender



A great day in the Smokies

I'm jealous! You're right...it was such a great driving day that Ron and I went in search of some interesting roads outside of Charlotte (mostly just wishful thinking; anything good around here is too heavily trafficked).

We should have gone with you! Nice pics.
