Durn, well this Saturday is my daughter's 10th birthday so I guess I should stay home.
Y'all have fun!

Well, for those of y'all already there.... how's the weather
I read on the Dragon website that they had some strong winds earlier in the week. Still about 85% sure that we'll be going tomorrow

Well, that 85% became about 0% quick, fast and in a hurry. The Frau doesn't feel too good and driving 4 hours to spend 2-3 at the Dragon before driving the 4 hours back doesn't appeal to her either
Anyway, I hope y'all enjoy yourselves and I look forward to seeing pics

Third weekend of October is best for colors and the weather is usually warm enough during the days. Mark it on your calendar!
Great road shots, MINIclo! I spent too much time looking at the road and hardly noticed the colors!

Thanks, Yucca! I took a bunch of them on the way to breakfast at the Homeplace yesterday. I shot a few through the windshield, but mostly took random blind shots by just holding the digicam out the window.
Donna at the Homeplace would like some pix of kool on the Big Wheel. We'll have to print one (or perhaps do a montage of several) and frame it for her! I got her mailing address.
