This weekend we met up with the Deep South Cobra Club. This was our first event with this group and they couldn't have been more welcoming! We had a great time with this friendly group. Friday and Saturday were cruise days. There was a choice on Friday on whether to go the Tail of the Dragon or the Cherohala Scenic Skyway. We had been on the Tail of the Dragon before so we chose the Cherohala. Those that went on the Dragon had a bit of excitement as they were the first upon the scene of a motorcycle accident. Fortunately for us our cruise wasn't as exciting but the drive was awesome. It was every bit as scenic as the Dragon. Everyone met up again for a short drive to dinner.
Saturday the entire group went to Brasstown Bald, the highest spot in the state of Georgia. I've got to say, there were some gorgeous views from up there. It will be really incredible in a couple of weeks when the leaves turn. We had 20 Cobras traveling together. It was incredible sight on it's own!
And when we stop for gas we take over the gas station.
Speaking of gas... we are headed home and heard reports of a gas pipeline leak in Alabama that is causing gas shortages in a few states. We did actually experience this. Some stations were closed completely while others had long lines and were out of some grades of gas.
Interestingly, we are now back in Alabama and haven't seen this here. Tom said it's because people panic and everyone has to fill up just in case. Funnily, Tom was one of them!! We had plenty of gas to get further down the road but he didn't want to risk it, so Roo was topped off.
We had a great weekend in Georgia/North Carolina and now it's back home again. Well, for a week anyway. Next week we begin our epic New England tour. We can't wait!
That's how we roll!
