Watershed Cabins are the cabins that are located nearby. I have one cabin reserved for myself and my father. After we signed the rental contract we found out they claim minivans are not acceptable for the steep entrance. I kind of freaked out about it, but they said if a van is loaded down and when it starts to go up the hill, the front wheels slip. With RWD I think I will be OK, but hopefully I don't scrape my bumper up too much. I'll take it off if I have to I guess.

Those are not the ones I was thinking of, but they look really nice. Here are the ones I was referring to:

Well, with the north end of the Dragon closed by a rockslide, we may have to reroute the final leg of our caravan route, unless the rockslide is cleared before then. Since I don't want to repeat last year's nightmare of fighting through the Pigeon Forge rod run traffic., the only other alternative I see is I-75 SW from Knoxville to SR 68 to the Cherohala Skyway (SR143). Other suggeations? Hopefully, the Dragon gets cleared and this is a non-issue.

I'm coming from Columbus, OH. I'll be leaving Friday Morning.

I just registered today at The Cabins at Nantahala.

They have plenty of cabins available. They said i was the
first to call from the Rotary Group. They said they are only a
couple miles from Nantahala Village where most everyone else
is at.

OK, guys and gals, who's in on the caravan? Rendezvous points at Indy and Cincy on Thurs. If I don't hear commitments from folks east of the Ill. -Ind. line, Max777 and I may take a different route.

I thought I was going to have to cancel, but suddenly the planets have come into alignement and I'm back on schedule. :)

I will probably be leaving Wednesday night or Thursday very early morning (think 1 or 2 am). But if I pull off and sleep a while, I might be on schedule for a Cincinatti rendevous.

Bob, I'll PM you with my cell #....

Hey Bob, I know you hate the idea of going through Pigeon Ford, but I was looking at the map and there is a very twisty road (Highway 337) that could bring us out South of P.F. Is that the Smokey Mountain highway? Wondering if that would be an option for us, or is the traffic bad through there on a Thursday?

Well, I just got it...

I also just noticed that the blind cap was gone from my old one.... which means someone must have fucked with it. I'll go throw on the new one and see what happens.

Sorry to hear that man. I had to change out a ball joint this morning, pain in the arse...

yeah, ok, got the AFM in, works a lot better than the old one.

Got an alignment done as well btw, car no longer pulls to the side of the road, and the steering wheel is straight. I noticed a hell of a difference in how smoothly it "rolled" too.

Anyway, I'm gonna call hawk tonight and pack up my stuff, gotta wake up at 6:00am tomorrow.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 01:43 AM.
