I was the first to start swerving and blowing the horn...
I was just beside myself at the time.

Sign me up for the Spring meet, I'll sell body parts for room, board and gas before I miss another one. This was the best trip I've ever been one! I came alone, and left alone, but was surrounded by the best people the entire time there. ALL YOU GUYS ROCK!

Here you go Gary. I know these map routes don't apply to everyone, but this is what the group I was with did on the two days. The yellow lines were tracked with my handheld GPS I had in the car. Check my User Gallery for the full size. James
The second map should show counter-clock direction. I will have to correct that... sorry.

We had an absolute blast. Too bad we were only able to drive in for Saturday.
Also hate we were too late for the group shots.
Oh well, we'll be there on time from now on.
Met some great new friends.
It was very hard driving back home Saturday night after a great day with you all.
Thanks and see you in the spring !!!
I've posted a few pics. https://www.crossfireforum.org/galle...y.php/cat/1178

I had a great time, even with being sick sat morning.
It was great seeing old friends, and making new ones.
Thanks for all the hard work, Gary.
I'll be attending these Dragon runs until I look like this guy:

An encounter with a freelance writer and photographer on the way to the Dragon........
Paul Jordan pulled off I-75 in Tennessee along with us
while our Crossfire convoy from up north was traveling down to the Dragon.
He took a lot of pics and is putting together a story about our Crossfires and our forum in a AUTO magazine.
It will also tell the story of the Dragon meets we have every spring and fall.
This is Paul Jordan - Freelance writer & photographer (Retired from 30 years with GM)
The pics below are just a few that may appear in his story about the Crossfires.

I will be in contact with Paul and as soon as the story is printed I will find out where copies can be obtained.

Great shots Gary. Frank I am glad you got your front wheels straight, looks like you are part of the group now Looks good.
Did the pics I took standing on the overpass wall turn out? I was a bit shakey...

PS - Gary, why can't I get the full resolution pic when I click on them? It says page not available.

that overpass goes to a new development that is off in the background....so, it isn't really a road to nowhere as some of us thought...I'm just glad Frank and I didn't trip while taking a leak, or you never would have found us....
