We passed an AirGas truck on the way up.  That you?
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Yes.  Georgia.  If you go to Clayton, TN., beware of the 35 mph zone.  I got to meet the Chief of Police and she ain't very forgiving.

We only saw one car fall off the road.  Not one of ours, but rumer has it that a Saturn sky might be in the running as a doner vehicle for the next swap.........
A very fun day. Didn't get lost this time. The only issue was getting scarce fuel.  Lots of fun and beautiful scenery too!

A small portion of the endlessly beautiful weather and scenery we enjoyed during Run For The Hills 21.


Former Georgia Fiero Club member, benevolent benefactor (Warrior Project Car) and current Gatlinburg, Tn. resident Mike Barr, met us at our dinner restaurant.  Here, he's relating something to us as only Mike Barr can tell a story.


And then telling us how much truth there is to the story.  LOL


Looking North at our dinner table.


And looking South at our dinner table.


Looking North from the room's balcony.


And South.




If anyone has one, I need a picture of Joe and his car to complete the lineup.

Thank you, Robbie and Gail for making the trip to join us for lunch.  It was great to see you both and to see you're doing so well.  I apologize for not being able to stay and visit longer.

Excellent pix!

Thank you and thanks to all who attended!

For those of you who didn't / couldn't make it . . . there's next year!
You can't fix stupid but, you can adjust it with a 2x4.

Good to see everyone again.
Rob... I'm happy that y'all came down to meet us. Good to see you again. It's been a while.

Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make this a success (especially you, Charlie.) It was very much appreciated.
This was one of the few times I've run the Dragon that traffic didn't get in the way. (Well... except for that one Corvette - edited out.)
Here's a few minutes of video I captured.

I want to say thanks to Mr. fool for taking the time to organize this year's event. It does take an awful lot of time and dedication to put it together. Other than the bit of trouble with my car, everything went off without a hitch. Leigh-Ann even  made some new friends in Tammy and Carolyn. Personally I was quite impressed with this years choice of restaurant. Oh my goodness was that some good barbecue. I WILL be back there. I did email Pat some pictures that we took. If he thinks they are worthy I'm sure they will be posted.

I would also like to thank everyone for singing Happy Birthday to Leigh-Ann with me. She was quite surprised. Thanks everyone.  ;)

And to let everyone know, my car has not had the hiccups since Saturday.

Thanks again Mr. fool.
