Thurs-Mon
Please private message me some feedback on run looking to do with Diana this year - early so we can make changes. Dont have to stop at all these places (GPS routing points). Picnic lunch along way ...
Fontana Dam to Sunburst Falls via 215 .... hop on Blue Ridge Pwky to Graveyard Fields-Looking Glass Rock Overlook - Log Hollow Overlook- pick up 276 Looking Glass Falls (stop for sure) - head north 276 to Soco Falls (?) and either hop on Blue Ridge again or take 19 to Casino/SPA then head back (will be getting dark).
A little long and can easily be shortened by skipping some or re-routing. Hoping for some feedback from Spring as well.

I'm excited to see all of the posts from all of you who will be coming.

We have a whole summer ahead of us but still very much looking forward to this Fall event and coming in my new 6 Speed Roadster 😎
