I remember the wind and view from Mt.Mitchell from when I was about 9,  also the road going up Black Mountain as being full of curves (could have been the way my parents were driving? ).

I might have to come earlier in the week to partake in the swinging bridge thing.

Driller, MMRanch, what we need are some of the VERY BEST things to do, preferably in an organized fashion where we don't backtrack any more than we have to.

And none of that joking around stuff, a pushing and shoving on each other while out there on that there teetery little cable foot bridge strung way up in the air between them two mountain peaks  .....


55 days and counting ......

It is perty durn far away, on the far side of Ashville and is what over 80-90 miles long through the heart of the eastern section of Pisgah National Forest?


               (no gas stations)


I was thinking we'd mostly stay on this civilized side of Ashville, mostly.  With lots of ready bathrooms and drink breaks in BurgerKings & Greasy Mac's and whatnot in all them ready little towns and such.   And gasoline, don't forget each time we stop to piss we gotta gas up all over again.  

And we gotta always be mindful of the cell phone, EMS and Triple AAA service availability for any Hurley riders we catch up with ....

Not that we couldn't go elsewhere, but we gotta take Lancer's back and my left hip joint into consideration with these here extra extra longish trip plans.

And about them 10,000 stair steps to get up to the top of Mt. Mitchell --- sorry 'bout that but these here old creaky folks ain't up to it.



Playing a sedate round of HillBilly Golf at Pidgeon Forge is more our speed, I think.

Are we going to the Creek..... I am bringing my trunks

Heck, if we are going to the sireen springs I'm gonna bring a fishing pole.

There might be one of those rivers with Sireens along the Trail called  "Full day of twisties"

Just for the record :   I only like Sireens becouse they Sing so Perty !  

I'm not worried about Pete !  I'm worried about OldFeller and You getting turned into Toads !   Ya know One of Ya'll  is allready  half converted .




I'm not sure I could find that place where Darrell put oil in his gas on first try ,  but do remember its not that far from  Dragon Central ....

I kinda miss Darrell ,   First time I'd ever seen WhiteWall on a Savage and he was kinda nice kinda feller.

come to think on it ---- thats the only time I seen WhiteWalls on a Savage.
