Anyone from SC that is thinking of taking another route to the Dragon is more than welcomed to join us via Savannah Macon Atlanta route... which after Atlanta should be an absolutely beautiful route!!! Might have to stop for some photo ops!!!

Anytime, Doc! Call and I'll give you directions.

And if you're forced to...you can bring that Damnanimal with you. I have plenty of good whiskey, thanks to pregets!

Thanks for the thought.

Did you know those are considered "Sex toys" in Alabama, therefore illegal.

Baptists-gotta' love 'em!

Bill, You're half ways between Me and Max. Maybe we should head down there Thursday and do some talking with Max... Maybe we can get him to come with us the rest of the way to the dragon.

Max: Good luck with your surgery - see you in the spring!

Doc: Bringing the Boss?!? Well, I suppose that's OK. She seemed real nice when I met her. I still think she has questionable judgment though. After all, she let me stay in your house AND she married you!

Danimal & Corky: what's this about sex toys?

Gary, on the way down on Friday, how about a slight change of scenery. Take a look at these two different ways to get off 411. Let me know.

james, the foothills route is how I go home every year...so, going in is fine with me...and Max, I wish you best my friend....if I had known sooner, may have come your way a little early...always up for a road trip. You get better, now...you here...Danimal....I would, but I know for a fact...he would be there if he wasn't in pain...

HWY 72 is a very good way to go in. It is easy to miss the turn going east off 441 so look close.

Otherwise a very nice ride with little traffic interrupting the trip.

You can also go down I-75 to where it meets 72. You will miss the tour thru town. (I remember following Gary thru Knoxville once. I don't follow him anywhere since)

Words to remember!! Very important. I made the same mistake of following Gary before.

OK OK so I missed a turn once in awhile.
Just remember the GPS is my only tool to get me there so if it fails me I in turn then fail you..lol
I don't have to be in the lead if someone else wants to take the risk of leading us into a wrong turn.

Doc, If ya can't make the hotel in Florence, Ky then can ya make Lexington by 9am ??

Forget it, tried to post the weather from Weather.com for the area - but it doesn't copy well.

Anyway:

Looks like 60% rain on sat, 0% on Sunday and Monday with highs in the upper 60's both days.

Not too bad, and there is STILL time for them to revise it anyway.

James,
Let's go with this route "Foothills Parkway"
This will give anyone with us who won't be doing the loop on Sunday a chance to see the beauty of this stretch of road.
We will all stop for a bite to eat and a gas top off in Marysville on the way down.
