Because I am trailoring the car up, and I am assuming that we will be doing the same thing again at 0-dark:30. I will be bringing all of the cleaning products in the van. All will be welcome to use them. Its a small price to pay for a beautiful picture.

Scott: That is a very generous offer. Does that mean you'll clean my car, too? I couldn't get Pat I am Fink to do it last year. You know I don't want to break a nail.

Thanks, Scott.

Jeez, I don't log in for a few days & look what happens!
So, Max, I'm therefore assuming that an additional bag or 2 of curds will not sway your decision one way or the other?
Maybe a six pack of Leinie's?!, wink, wink, nudge, nudge.....

Ginny and I will be there. We live near the Dragon so we have a place to sleep. But looking forward to see all the beautiful cars.

Man I couldn't imagine living that close to that road. We talked to a biker in the spring that lived nearby, he said that he was getting to the point where he knew the road soooooo well that it was getting boring for him.

I can't imagine =)

Set your GPS to:

399 Woods Rd
Fontana Dam, NC

This should bring you directly to the Fontana Lodge

Thanks for that info VALKRYDERGUY... I've heard good and bad things about the nav unit and I just wanted to make sure it would get me there.

I'm just gonna follow Deb Walker, I'll still have the Nav on to see what that cool Female British voice has to say.... I swear she called me "Mr. Bond" the other day. (A common mistake people make when they see me in the Roadster. )

My wife keeps telling me to change the female to a male in my portable Magellan so it doesn't start nagging me about a turn I missed, but I think she just wants to hear the cool British Male voice.

Only problem with the on-board nav, is the lack of a map. Also my data is out of date, I understand the new data CD is on the net, but I have heard that it doesn't work right. I have the Magellan, who cares!

I changed my GPS to the male voice immediately......if I wanted a female telling me where to go, I would just get married again.
