Three Oct. weekends of Cobra events in a row followed by a week in the NC mountains - ALL PERFECT WEATHER
Carol and I pulled in our driveway at 8:00 pm last night. It seems I have lived in the driver's seat of at least one of the cars the whole month. 1st New Orleans, then Key West, followed by Gainesville, and then onto the mountains of NC and Tenn. and finally back to So. Fla.
We have put some serious miles on the Escalade recently, especially pulling the trailer through those 2 - lane winding mountain roads.
The trip down from Highlands NC was the worst part with plenty of tourist traffic, tight switch back turns, and the degree of grade.
The mountains were in full color and the weather couldn't have been more perfect.
I even stopped in to see Ernie Elliot's (Bill's brother) Engine shop in Dawsonville Ga. on the way up. Quite an operation. I may have a special secret in store for you guys when we hit Gainesville again. Ed, please post times from last event when you get a chance so I can dial in how much this "Old Man" needs to whip you youngsters the next time out.
I need a rest now,
See you all in a few weeks,
TL & Carol
