Default Greetings from the Blue Ridge Parkway

Just laid off and given severance package = road trip!

Been raining for my visit so far, but today was gorgeous and in the 70s. The Comptech intake sounds just about perfect in the tunnels on the parkway.

Driving in and out of clouds.


Wouldn't ya know I run into another S2K from the Daytona area.

Chris, sorry to hear about the job situation. Looks like you're making good use of your time & severance money!

I love that area up there. It's so beautiful and so perfect for our cars! Nice pics!

Chris,

I would love to be up there now. I'm planning a trip in Mid October,,,,

Hint...if anyone else wants to go, let me know

Sorry to hear about the layoff, the mountains are a great place to clear you mind and make a plan


Enjoy


Mitch

Thinking of trip up that way as well - perhaps end of August or later.

Let me know what you do for a living perhaps I can help

I should tell my parents to rent out my room for visiting S2K enthusiasts!

Just got done with another 2 hr. evening drive - temps in the 60s and so many stars! Thanks guys - I'm looking for web work. I have an offer from a large company in downtown Miami to be their webmaster, and I have one more week to decide on it. Not sure about that P.Pines to downtown Miami commute though Coming back north after 6:30PM isn't so bad, but the mornings ... hopefully I-95 isn't quite so bad just after 9AM.

After 9:00am 95 is hit or miss. Most day I can make it in less than 30 from stirling to downtown, some days it sucks... i don;t do it every day though
