Anyone for an after MOTD snack??

 

FWIW, when we were down in October, the Dragon was very full of leaf watchers(will not be a problem in May), so a few friends and I took a ride down thru Robbinsville and got on the Cherohala (SP) Skyway, It is up through the mountains up to 6000' , beautiful drive, not as tight or crowded as the dragon, lots of scenic overlooks for pictures, and at the end there is a side road that takes you back to "somename" waterfalls, again another great pix place. Then we continued west to Telico Plains, and found a really neat restaurant I believe it was called the Bistro, which is right on the River and had a great outdoor riverside lunch. then on west and took a shortcut back to the beginning west end of the Dragon. I guess it would be about 1/2 day with lunch, depending on how many pix breaks we took, not that many miles. Anyway, if it is of interest, I would be happy to arrange the tour. if enuff interest, we can pull this off to a separate topic and have the event planners tell us which day it would be the best to do it??

Here's pix of Minzila at the falls

 

you know i am up for it steve! maybe saturday morning/early noon time frame?

 

I’m game because it will be mighty crowded on 129 come 9/10 AM.

 

If you want to put this together that would be cool. We were going to include the Cherohala Loop tour from tailofthedragon.com in the welcome guide anyway...

Saturday would probably work best since there's two drives on Friday.

 

I'd like to join in on this drive. Put me down as interested

 

I was planning to do that Sunday, after the events died down, but would love to join a caravan Saturday or whenever.

 

OK I will start a new thread, go there and sign up and I will put together the details,

Looks like Saturday Morning
OK this has become an event for Saturday Morning /lunch, and loops back to the Dragon see the events guide and register and details there

 

Now the question remains, will I be awake in time for this event?

 

Hey guess what just dawned on my lttle brain

Thursday, is Cinco De Mayo, someone should start a Margarita Party for after the Welcome Dinner,,, or at the welcome dinner,,, or before the welcome dinner,,, or before the welcome dinner and at the welcome dinner and after the welcome dinner

Hwoose puttin on this party anyway, everyone bring your Sombreros

 

^^^^^will ya be dancing naked at that too?

 

Or a Margarita Mix Off....now that is one I could compete in. My chili sucks but my margaritas???? Different story totally.

 

Get it On!

 

Steve,

I'm SURE I'll have cigars left over for whoever wants to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, Cuban style!

 

I'll be staying with Queenie --- pass me a lime, please!!!!

Hugs,
PB

 

WHOA, big fella! Immediately following the Welcome Dinner is the Smokin the Dragon Cigar Sampling Salon on the porch of the Recreation Room! If you want to bring sipping tequila to that, that would be AWESOME! We could make hand-shaken margaritas...I'll bring a few spare martini shakers from home!

Ok that would be good, Margarita drinkers way up wind, chili samplers just upwind, then Cigar samplers down wind of the rest,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

 

Ok QueenB, you have my attention now!!!!!!!!

Can

 

Think the chili samplers should be down wind too!

 

LOL, Hey Cheryl. I see you have your priorities in order. I have been considering developing a special Mountain Margarita.
One designed to provoke impudence and imprudence and to go well with bluegrass music.


And if you don't like bluegrass music, just drink another one and it will sound better.

 

Hey, gal! Now THESE sound like just what we need to kick off the Dragon Meet! Mountain margaritas: provoke impudence and imprudence! YAY!

Sassssay!

Me too, one weekend I'll be at the dragon in the MINI and the next weekend I'll be back on my motorcycle.:smile: :smile: :smile:

 

i was just out on the motorsickle navigating the ice patchs the other day

 

Unless you have studded tires those ice patches are good to avoid. A motor officer from Chigaco died after he hit some black ice a month of so ago. I try not to ride if that stuff is on the road.

 

OK for sure I'm bringin my copy of Cotton Eyed Joe That'll get everyone up on one leg while slappin the other!
