Go to the one in Newport Closer then the Severville one by miles if you go up 321 and its better the Severville one is packed with all the loonies. If you go up 321 to Newport you'll come right out at it and you get to go through Gatlinburg.

Don't forget to print you off a RHN list for the road, or at the very least have my number near by. Might not get to you in time, but I'm hell on the computer and phone.

I'm busy making my final preparations for departure. Leaving some time between 5 and 6 tomorrow morning. Tire pressures are good, spare is inflated and onboard, tools are loaded up, 6.0 trans cooler will be loaded shortly, fluid levels are good. Going to Best Buy soon to pick up some entertainment and maybe a spare camera battery/memory card. Then packing clothes and I'm good to go.

Oh and I still gotta wash the beast.

I've got a busy day ahead of me.

Thanks Justin.

Like everyone else who couldn't make it but wanted to, we plan on living vicariously through everyone's posts and pictures, so keep 'em coming.

You probably meant to quote the above quote, because it looks like you're calling Jeff by my name with the quote ya used!

It's all good though because Jeff is a handsome, debonair fellow like me!
