Re: 9th Annual Fall 2015 - Tail of the Dragon GTG-October 1, 2, 3, 4
Hello everyone
My wife and I left Fontana Lodge on Monday morning after everyone else had departed.
Its a lonely feeling to be the last one to leave...thinking of all the people that occupied the lobby just a few nights before.
Anyway we stopped off at the nearby "Historic Tapoco Lodge" to check out the property and then onward for a final run through the Chreohala Skyway with a stop at Bald River Falls.
We then continued on to a hotel outside the city of Nashville and spent Monday night there
On Tuesday we spent the whole day checking out the sites in Nashville.
We toured the "Belmont Mansion", and saw the "Parthenon", "The RCA studio B" and "The Bridgestone Arena"
We drove down "Music Row" and then more areas Downtown before having some lunch at "Merchants Restaurant" on Broadway
Then heading out of town we stopped to see the "Grand Ole Opry"
We finally headed the 8 hours home after a full day in Nashville and arrived at 2am back at home ready to sleep
I just want to thank everyone for coming and I especially enjoyed meeting the new folks who joined us
I hope to make the trip back next year but in case I can't ....
I have left the Fall Dragon in the competent hands of our member AKING57
I have attached 2 links below
One link with my pics from the Smokey Mountain train ride that some of us took on Saturday out from Bryson City
and One link with pics from our weekend at the Dragon and our visit to Nashville on the way home.
After clicking the link click the diagonal arrow in the right lower corner for full screen view
Have a safe winter season wherever you live and I hope to see many of you at an event next year and of course I will still be here on the forum regularly as usual
