I can see the terror in your face now, Evan, but at least you aren't riding with me, I don't have the best track record out there

Short answer is NO. Long answer involves copious amounts of libations and a non-disclosure contract.

Itsky and I are staying until Monday Morning so I guess we are in for Sunday runs.
This early spring should give us many days of topless running.

Jus sayin'

Pacemaker was kind enough to offer to run an Easter service for anyone interested. After that I thought it might be great to head over to Bryson City and have lunch at the Burger Basket. Nick, Dan, Troy, Jane and myself ate there a few years ago after white water rafting. They have really good food and you can eat it over looking the river. Its really a nice run there too. At that point there options to hit the Cherohala, the Dragon, etc. I don't think that we would have any problem getting Gary back in time to head back to Chicago. The option would also be there to do some gem-mining in Bryson City or horseback riding back at the Lodge that day. Does this sound like a good plan? BTW, the Burger Basket has a "Dragon Burger" that will make your tongue slap your brains out!!!

I'm in, just tooling around the fontana area sounds like a good day. Especially after 2 days of driving.

Sounds like we will do the Sunday run based around the Burger Basket. I was going to head there on Saturday but they said they won't have parking for 30ish cars. Back to Fat Buddies we go......

Yesterday I spoke to Tabatha at Fontana and they are blocking off the porch at the Grill for us Friday and Saturday evenings. We will be able to join the tables together for a huge long table if we choose. Anyone who wants to eat alone or in a smaller group will of course be able to do that. I love eating as a huge group and catching up with everyone. I am also working on getting us a firepit and finding out about the ghost tour.

For the first time, we are going to TRY to remember our disc golf discs because of the course right on the property.

If anyone else is interested in some folf, the more the merrier
