you guys are ALRIGHT ...
of course, I still have the small details of where the time and money to make the trip are going to come from ... and right now, neither of those seem favorable ... but, I've sure got something to think about now after those terrific offers ...

Your best choice in to fly into Knoxville,Tennessee
It's only 65 miles from Fontana Dam and serves major airlines.

I'll be driving solo. Happy to have a passenger. If you are nice, I may let you drive.

Steve,
small point.
Knoxville may be an expensive ticket from Frisco. Look at St louis, Indianapolis, Chicago or even Nashville TN. Get picked up and a fun ride in from there.
You are welcome to stay at my place if St Louis is a good fare from there.

We can pass Steve around like a red headed step child.
Make him pick up lunch and tips and wipe the brake dust off the cars with autosticks.

I'm leaving my place (40 miles from Chicago O'Hare or Midway) Thursday afternoon.(April 2nd)
I spend the night at the Red Roof Inn -Florence, Kentucky
Crossfirefrank, msgump, msxfire, join me that evening at the hotel and then on Friday morning we are also joined by tnn14 & James1549 and we all leave for the 5 hour run to the Fontana Lodge with our first trip through the Dragon along the way.
We hooked up with Franc Rauscher and oledoc2u near Lexington last fall and had quite a convoy heading the last 4 hours of the trip.
I hope this will be the plan for this Spring meet and we can add Cathy to the list this time.
I return home on Monday in a non stop trip back to Chi-town.
