There is a Burger King and a Marathon gas station just east of Hooters..... can get some food there.

A number of us get there early, and stand around talking, and then wait for scragglers....

This year, we will be leaving at the posted time. If someone is late (unless they are from out-of-state, they will just have to catch up.

For lunch...... we need to try and keep our stop around one hour or so.... no point standing/sitting at an Arby's when we can get to somewhere that is fun sooner... G-burg or Fontana...

Just my two cents worth...... of course, this all goes by the wayside if I'm not driving yet at that time!

As long as you get to the gas station in Marysville on-time, you can stand around all you want...

Denny:

Your first posts says we will be leaving 9:30 - 10:00....

Why don't you edit that post... to state a time? Do it in BIG RED letters....

Then post that line here so everyone knows the time.

I don't mind the 9:30 time.... thats late enough!

What time should we meet you at Marysville at the Exxon station? I'll adjust our leaving time so that we get there about the same time you do.

Foot is in a non-weight bearing cast....

Has to be on 6.5-11.5 weeks still....

If it is still on at Dragon time.... I'm a passenger!

Slipped on the ice a few weeks ago and fractured the biggest bone in the foot.

Ken...We would like to be there @ 3 PM.... but it's hard to say.. I would say that I'll call you, ( and I will try ) from Berea, when we leave there..but cell coverage @ Fontana sucks !!!!

Ken.. The Exxon station is on 321, toward Maryville. When you come off the Foothills, turn left back toward Maryville. It is about 5 miles, on your left. It is a big gas station, and there is a bank, next door. Can hardly miss it !!!

2428 East Lamar Alexander Parkway, Maryville, TN

This looks like the correct, one....
