I REALLY want it printed on a clear (or tinted) cling...
Do the wipers go up that high?

It's the German in me, I guess. We have started a few wars.

One thought I did have about a Jan or Feb running of the dragon is ice-I wonder if that's an issue up there in winter?

The Dragon itself is at relatively low elevation and pretty much stays clear (hence the US highway 129 truck route...).

The Skyway, Parkway and some of the other roads can be more scary...

Dragon

Been outta town..my first post after the Dragon Slaying..wife and I had a great time meeting many of you...what a great bunch of friendly, fun loving people.

Had to stay close to the lodge most of the weekend to deal with a situation back home (cell phones wouldn't work), so we missed lots of the fun...did get to see LSU beat Alabama tho..

Jason and others did a great job..I know it was lotsa work, but I'm sure that everybody appreciates it.

My very first Dragon run in my Mini was with the "recon" team just before the midnight run. Blimey and Drillslinger left this old fart in their wakes!!

Hope to join you again next time so we can get involved with more of the festivities...

RudyT wasn't able to join us last weekend - work commitments. I told him that we'll find a weekend this winter to go back up... my kids want to go with me this trip, too - so would probably be a up late Friday, back on Sunday thing. I'm not doing all the work for that one that Jason did this time... but I'll let folks know whenever it ends up being...

Unless I win 6/49 (our lottery 100% tax free I may add) I will not be down again until May...
