His better half is a saint, but anything else bunking with him is still his better

Looking forward to next Thursday when we start our drive. JoAnn, sorry to hear about your dog, was hoping we'd be able to see both you. Best of luck with the pooch.

No worries, we will play things by ear based on conditions. I live in Houston, so I have seen where we were suppose to have an 80% chance of rain and half the town doesn't get a spitting. So, we can make that judgement call then.

Oh boy...just relayed this to the planner group for the Gen Coupes. Thanks for the heads up. I get the feeling not only will the local roads be packed with Gen Coupes, Crossfires, and leafers, but apparently Vettes too. This may get pretty crazy considering this doesn't count all the motorcycles you can count on being there.

That is beautiful, and we have still never gotten there in our 6+ trips to the Dragon. Maybe next time I can bride you to show us the way

Usually we are going too fast to notice the beautiful scenery, but i willl stop for a good waterfall anyday...

North Carolina near the town of Highlands.

If you look at that first long route I mentioned to you on the caravan thread/PM, it includes this waterfall in the route.

I just checked weather.com and they are now saying 0% rain on the 3rd, 10% on the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 0% on the 7th. Highs around 73 and lows of 46. Looks like a great week ahead...just a little chilly for this Floridian at night. I freeze at 60..

Yea, tha'ts WAY too cold for me, and I like to drive with the top down. Oh well, I'll run the heat up high and wear a sweater.

Our IAT's will like the cool air!
