Our trip to Tennessee and the Dragon

So we made a nice vacation trip down to Tennessee and of course had to stop in on the Dragon since we were in Pigeon Forger area and only 40minutes away. Here are some photos from our trip there and the ride on the Dragon.

Also found photos of our car on two sites of photogs out at the Dragon might have to order their photos since I didnt get any good ones of the car in motion on the Dragon.

Nice Pix

Sweet pix you got there! I have only been on the Dragon once and I absolutely loved it! My daughter was a little car-sick by the end of the ride though
I'm surprised you didn't get shot by Killboy.com.
All the pix look great.

PB

I'm heading this way in a couple of weeks as part of my trip to Maine, Vermont, and other various places. I'll be going through Knoxville, and am going to take a side trip down the Dragon. Hopefully the fall colors will be out.

Great pics, Rob! Looks like tons of fun. I want to do the Dragon someday.

We leave tomorrow for South Dakota. I am looking forward to driving on the Needles Highway out there. At least the long straight drive there will be more fun in our MINI than the other trips we have made there in our Mini van. Plus we are going sans children! I will post pics, too.

Those should be some pretty cool photos on the Needles Highway! The Dragon was fun, its too bad its so heavily patrolled though.
