Re: 11th Annual Fall 2017 -Tail of the Dragon GTG - Oct 5,6,7,8
Ok. I am going to list my runs. Saturday I will lead a "Spirited Tourist Group" (Speed limit with a little fun but not crazy) to Tallulah Gorge and Falls. Lunch TBD. Sunday I am leading a full day tour to Clingmans Dome, Great Smokey Mountains National Park with Lunch at Applewoods Farm in Seviervillle , TN ( Applewood Farmhouse Restaurant ) Then a fun run via some back roads along a river to Foot Hills Parkway, The Tail Of the Dragon with Dinner at Tapoco Lodge. Crystal stick with me kiddo and we will have fun!
BTW, "Spirited Tourist" is where for the most part we do the speed limit (or close to it) with some fun burst of blowing out the carbon...

Oh, you do realize there are 79 other cars at the dragon that weekend and the event isn't all about you?
I have never been on Michael's runs, but I have only heard amazing things about them.
As far as being alone in a crowded room, that's on you. Sometime you have to make the effort, otherwise you appear to be the one thats stuck up and doesn't want to socialize. The dragon is an incredible event with some of the best people in the world attending. If you don't walk away making a few friends then, You did something wrong"

The Dragon meet ain't high school with cliques and jocks and judgments. And it ain't the yatch club either. Open up and be yourself, pretentions don't work with honest friendly people who see each other little more than once a year. Just have a good time.

FB friends already so that's a start
Michael is also my friend and a good choice by you to sort of lead the way for you too

Always good advice.
Re: 11th Annual Fall 2017 -Tail of the Dragon GTG - Oct 5,6,7,8
So, it is more about who I definitely want to spend time with at this Dragon and worry that I might not see some of them at all (yes I understand this happens all the time). And of course I want to meet new people... But, I honesty can not handle being in a large group of people that I do not know that well. I would need some people around me that I feel comfortable around. That would help a lot to make me feel more at ease.
You'll have a great weekend.

Crystal is the poster child for Crossfire rescue - and the amazing thing is that she don't mind getting her hands dirty .....

So happy that I found out today I CAN get to the Dragon! So count me in. I wasn't able to get a lodge room (obviously), but was lucky enough to get a cabin. Carmen Crossfire and I are very excited. In fact, she was so excited to come, she made me buy her new sneakers for the trip.

Why is the sky blue when air has no color?
If there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but no one has ever found the end of a rainbow, how do we KNOW there is a pot of gold there?
Why are you not allowed to kiss hookers?
