Default Re: It Had To Happen

What a great day in the mountains with good friends. I was told the leaves were beautiful. The ride up the Dragon had to be the most all out assualt on that road by a driver who is not a professional that I have ever witnessed. The 4 wheel power slides just kept comming. It is really a different feeling in the right seat. Even with all the sliding and howling tires the car felt in control.......barely. I never got to the point of prayer but I was close in one right hander when the rear end was out about 45* and over the screching tires and screaming supercharger Howard said "Man I really need some new tires". Howard you are the man.

At the turn around Howard said you are driving back thru. I didn't say so but I thought that was the BEST idea I had heard all day. LOL

John's son Ben joined us at lunch and made the run on the road to no where with us. We had a fun run and it was good to see Ben again.

Now about that chicken sitting. There is just something inherently wrong with that photo. And there is most probably a local law against it. When Linda saw the photo she said.....and he is a law officer, there is something scary about that.

Thanks to all of you for a memorable day. We should do it more often.
