alberto is now expexted to become a cat 1 in the next 24 hrs, but the track has slowed down

Hmmm, I don't like that 72 hour forecast. I go back to work at FD on Thursday, and that path could effect us. That's all I need is high winds and torrential rains to have us running like crazy.

Hadn't thought about that. Makes my discomfort minimal. Hopefully it will blow out to the ocean before it gets that far north.

Just the nature of the beast!!!!! Like we would need to run anymore.

Hey DOOD how is the MPD BBQ spy doing? AKA your brother inlaw.

Be Safe

THE DAWG

[Fired00d]

True dat!!! We took the job didn't we.

Bro-N-Law is doing well. I figured he would have stopped off at your station during lunchtime to check on you by now. [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]

I'm sure he will see you during the cook-off in between sets while he's playing w/the band. What are the date, time and location of that event again? Might have to see if I can get a group to ride up and get some grub if I'm off.

 Odds aren't in your favor of seeing all 3 together.  :-/

 Could make the V-Girl look like she was only casually late.............

You're battin' a Thousand on that one there, Fatboy!  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] Got a call last night from a certain person in NC, that the plans had changed, and everything would be delayed until Tuesday, because of the freakin' rain!  Then at 5:50 a.m. this morning, I get a call that the plan is back to today!  :-? Anyway, OTIS and I arrived in Statesville, in the Denali of course, around 9:00 a.m., only to find JC, ak, jonga, and Heide, (Official Photographer), in the parking lot of the Waffle House.  That's another story! [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]  Anyway, after breakfast, we went over to Tilley's, and introduced them to Don Tilley and his Team, and just had a blast!  We talked about our life lessons, and found we all have a lot in common.  We all agreed we were ALL lucky to still be here!  I haven't had so much fun sittin' around bull chittin' and laughin', in a long, long time! [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif] [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif] [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]  They were heading West to meet up with Jock, and OTIS and I headed back North to the Mountain State.  Sure have made some Friends on this Site!  Thank you, Your Honor!  Later--HUBBARD

Will be well east of us!

i just hope we're not heading out through it

Hey, I like that idea!!  Will make me feel better anyway!!!  

[JCZ]

It's all four of us......sitting in the living quarters of the people that own this motel in Maggie Valley......letting us use their computer.  We're in a place called the Chalet and we got a two bedroom, two bath suite with kitchen, living room, etc. with a very nice balcony with a view.

Great upadates by Vgirl, TC and Hubbard! [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  V you were doing fine for a novice and I've got to say that I was impressed with your perserverence even after the misunderstanding on location, early on.  Then when it started the thunder and lightening and coming down in buckets, I was sure that you were going to be diving for cover at the next off ramp that had a motel.  Nope, she's a trooper........she just kept on keepin on.......no snivelin or nothing.  Look all the way through those turns girl and you'll be fine.

The hospitality in Charlotte was exceptional and Chip and Nancy rolled out the red carpet treatment.  We were scheduled to go up to West Va. to Hubbard and Otis' place today but when we called last night, Hubbard informed us that it was supposed to rain all day today.  We rode up to Statesville and they drove down.  From there, we headed here to Maggie Valley.  Very, very tired but we should finally get a full nights sleep tonight! [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

Tomorrow morning Jock and several others are going to hook up with us here in Maggie Valley and we're going to do the Tail of The Dragon.  I'm very tired and I know I'm forgetting a hell of a lot that I'd like to say but let me just say that we've met some really great people and we haven't quit laughing for the past three days the crown was with Hubbard and Otis today.......we were laughing so damn hard my stomach hurts.  I'm really sorry that our plans got screwed up and we weren't able to spend more time with those two.

Terry, it was great meeting you and your wife and we appreciate you helping us get out of Atlanta.  The bike is broke in now.......enjoy it.

We should be hooking up with JR and the other Memphis crew by Friday (maybe Thurs. evening).  Our plans change about twenty times a day so there's no tellin.....but that's what's so great about a V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N! [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

JCZ, Jonga, AK and Heidi, it sounds like you have a really nice set-up at Maggie Valley.  I'm glad to hear y'all are having a great time.

TC and I really enjoyed meeting and visiting with y'all Saturday.  We're sorry we scared you zipping through Atlanta!     Unfortunately you have to keep up with the pace or you'll get run over in HotLanta traffic.[smiley=nervous.gif]

We're already talking about heading West.  The 2007 rally sounds awesome, [smiley=drink.gif] but hopefully we can visit you guys before then.   [smiley=banana.gif]

Be safe.

Happy Trails, until we meet again.

Vgirl was kind enough to bring her lap top over to us here in Chattanooga tonight.  

We're having a great time.  Spent the day visiting all the civil wars battlegrounds, Ruby Falls, Rock City, etc. all day.  We're not missing much.

Of course we've met some great people and have saw some old friends, too.  Tomorrow is the tour through the Jack Daniels Distillery and on to Memphis.  Got company......gotta go!

[The Bolvine Gigolo!]

Hey! Guy's
Glad you guys are having a good time, you'll really enjoy the Distillery. I did it a few years ago, but unless it's different now you'll need to bring your own bottle it's a ( DRY COUNTY ) [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

See you guy's Monday        Don

[TheVgirl]

Tomorrow is the tour through the Jack Daniels Distillery and on to Memphis.

I tried to tell them to go to the George Dickel distillery too!  One distillery is huge and very commercialized.  The other is small and laid back.  One is bourbon, one is sour mash whiskey.  Both are in the same area and within a few miles of each other!  

[TheVgirl]

JCZ, AK, Jonga, Hyde, and Jock were a lot of fun!  Hyde leaves to go back home to Boston tomorrow.  I believe she has had the time of her life!!  She is by far the most adventurous gal I've ever met!!!  Hubbard was right!  She was definitely the designated photographer on the trip!  Some 500+ photos in less than a week!!!  When JC and Andy gets home, you guys should see some terrific shots of the Southeast.   [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

The line-up now is one pumpkin [smiley=pumpkin.gif], two black 8-) and blues [smiley=nervous.gif] (Is that a blackberry or a blueberry?  ), and a customized Street Glide [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]!  After sitting on JC's SEEG, I think I might have found my next bike (for long trips)!!!   Hub is right!  90 miles an hour with no fairing beats you up, even with a detachable windshield!!!

Now I wish I was going to Cripple Creek!!  Put me down for next year!!

[WFP]

...Now I wish I was going to Cripple Creek!!  Put me down for next year!!

Calgary...JC will be laying out the plan in Cripple Creek...I am already thinking about shipping my bike to Cali, ride the coast thru OR and WA into Vancouver then over to Calgary.

You WILL need a dresser for that!
