Rumors Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Oh the smoke breaks will still be on time!!! As to Dons response on my son earlier. He now cannot make it as of last night (at least doesn't believe so) as he may be in Nicaragua from May 3 to May 23 on a college work study class trip. As to drinks I do not have alligator arms. I'll make sure to pack an extra bottle this time for Jim and Don, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViperNC Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Interested as long as it does not interfere with Spring Break for my kids as it has in the past. Mid May would be a better timeframe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViperNC Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 FYI - Day two route heading east on 58.... fairly uninteresting at that point. Conversely, West on 58 is an amazing drive. Just a thought and then you could end up in either Abingdon or head back to Boone. I'll throw my hat in the ring as a maybe for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumors Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 I am going. Jeff "Cobramach1" is hoping to go. He went with us the year we went to Charlotte. He is working it out at work and thinks he travel down from Michigan with us. Jim, I agree, either car is beautiful but I would love to see the 350. Haven't been in one yet..... Spring is a coming, soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
