Default Pics|Weekend Drive

I popped up to the Dragon via Cherohala Skyway yesterday to go mess around with everybody up there for Zdayz...took some quick pics along the way.

I'm convinced that this area--east TN and on into NC--is among the best driving locations in the country. It's truly paradise for people who love a good romp on some amazing roads.

I was up there for ZDAYZ as well. Are you a part of the Smokey MT Z Club? I just got back this evening. I'll try to post some pics as well tomorrow.

No, no clubs. I was on a solo mission.

I saw some pics of your car on US129photo's site...we must have barely missed each other. Glad you made it back safely.

Yeah, I've never bothered in winter. Although with our comparably mild winters (as opposed to those up north), it probably wouldn't be too bad sometimes. But that mountain weather can definitely be a bit more volatile.

Thanks! I suspect the Z will be slightly more enjoyable than a Fit.

lol yeah, the Fit was bone stock. The pics turned out really good. It rained a little at the base of the mountains and was snowing up higher.
