Hey Terri, Unit and I are talking......we've swapped visits, y'all's place and ours. We've decided we know what's up. The last time y'all were here we made Vic install a water heater for us. No wonder y'all don't want to come back again! HAHAhAhAHAH!!!!!!!!!!

HeeHee!!!!! No, that's not the issue! Just since we got out of the restaurant, we've been like two kids in a candy store trying to decide what to do first! Would love to have you guys come visit again. The upstairs bedroom is almost back together after my son moved out, just finished painting it today, actually!
As regards the Gearhead Inn, we love Jim and Mary, as well as staying there, but we feel like maybe everyone is getting tired of doing the same thing over and over. That's why we thought maybe do something else?! Lack of traffic here concerns me too, but am thinking maybe everyone is busy, on vacation, etc., and just not looking at the computer. However, if we only have a limited number of participants for Fall Colors Tour, so be it!!!!!! I think we should go ahead and plan something, and those that want to join can. AMP sounds like it would be a fun trip. And we have a friend who lives in Dawsonville, so we would get to see him too!

Mapquest says it's 2.5 hours from Dawsonville to Gear Head Inn. We could position ourselves in Dawsonville on a Friday. Would make more sense and fun to all use the same motel, whichever one. Do the go karts and whatever on Saturday....That Georgia Racing Museum is a neat little ticket, or has everyone already worn that one out? The Dawsonville Pool Hall may be a great place for lunch, in a dozen stays there I've never been inside the place.
I like Sue's thinking, the ride from Dawsonville to GHI could be "the tour." And to throw another bizarre wrench into things, just for the round table, with lots of us falling off the work wagon, this doesn't even have to be on a weekend. Just sayin, for lively discussion.Charter member of the Turd Nuggets

Ahh, the voice of practicality!!!! You are so right, Sue! We definately need to set a date before we do anything else. Suggestions??!!!
Tell Kenny we will for sure let him know before we visit again, so he can find a place to disappear for the duration!!!!!!!!!!!Terri B. Long Hauler, Cars and Cones participant, Land Speed Racer

I should be good for anything, but looking at the map if we leave for Gearhead on Saturday I suggest Hyw 60 to Ducktown TN, then 74 to Bryson city, it's all National
Forest and should be a nice ride, about 4 hours not counting stopping and eating. Of course some of y'all no the area better than me. Or we could go to Telco plains and drive the Skyway. Just throwing ideas cause I'd like to hit some curves and scenery.

Just another thought, if we go to AMP with the emphasis on the Cart racing, how many actually want to get in the race? I know Peewee and me will, Robert if he comes, anyone else? But then again, who else is in for FCT? Hoping to have my Vette back on the road by then. As for as the date, Andy is there a time that might work for you and your mill outage, I know a couple of times the weekends just happened to work with my schedule, would like to do the same for anyone else it could help.Last edited by corvettedad; July 18, 2018, 04:02 AM.Pt 2010, Long Haul 2011,12,13,14,15,16,17, 18, 19, 23

You are reading my mind, Perry. John and Kathy, and Vic also still have work obligations to consider, which is why I haven't suggested a date. Charles, I don't know. Sure would like to see input from them. You make a good point...how much interest IS there in a FCT at all this year?

Vic's work obligations are flexible, seeing as how he's self-employed and his son works with him!! Would be nice if everybody else chimed in so we can set a date. Donna, we would love to have you and Bob join us if you could!!
And yes, I would for sure be interested in doing the carts!Terri B. Long Hauler, Cars and Cones participant, Land Speed Racer

It has been easy putting this gatherings together before, not much discussion, let's just DO it, whatever it is. Somehow it's become more difficult, can everyone agree to that? By life or by circumstance, this one is hard to figure out.
