Gas is expensive. . .and funds are running low, thanks in part to getting the car inspected and changing all those fluids today.

I think I'm going to have to sit tomorrow out. Enjoy the drive, all who are going.

Home safely !!

Although 4 S's went up and only 3 came back ...

There are some nice curvy roads around Shady Valley, but they can be a bit treacherous...especially if you've never been on them before. Of course...I'm the pokey one, anyway...so they weren't too bad...just drive within your limits.

I'll work on pics a bit later.

Details to come...I'm trying to locate my XD card reader so I can download the pics.

One went over the side of the mountain...luckily he came away without a scratch . Not so lucky for the S .

Sorry about the car.

That's not good at all!! Everyone going to the Dragon should take a look at these pics and pay attention. Things do happen. Be careful out there.
