Coming back thru the mountains from the old Run to the Rock Show in Chimney Rock, NC headed toward Tennessee. That is the Smokies off to the distant left.





Me and a couple of my friends from Music City F100 heading out of Chattanooga on I-75 to Atlanta for a show put on by Georgia Lo-riders at the old Ford Taurus Plant. This was maiden voyage for me in my 55. 560 miles round trip withOUT a hiccup.

I hope to be adding to this thread soon......

Right now, all you'd see through my windshield is the end of my driveway.

Doesn't mean you can't post anything. The end of your driveway is "through the windshield".

As taken by the dear wife, through the side window, of the Hiwassee River near Delano, TN. Sorry, but it was a narrow road, I was driving and the view was of the river.
