Carl, be sure your tank is full this time. No gas on Wayah road.

Sunday
will be the Cades Cove run to Riche's mountain road and then the Brew and chew on Alexander PKWY, Maryville TN
Shiloh Brew & Chew - Home of the Big ol' Steak
Again, we leave at 9:30 and return when ever.
I, and my buddy Mike, will be heading home from the restaurant.
But the return to the Lodge is easy.
Foothills Parkway to the Dragon for a last run in.
Both runs are great views, on very curvy roads, However, non aggressive driving.
