Very nice pics. There sure are some awesome driving roads down there.
I'm sorry, but someone has to say it, and I guess it'll be me... Seriously, windows up with the top down?!

the dragon is in the MOUNTAINS OF N.C. over 130 curvers in a short length of road... A ton of fun as long as the law dont pull you over..
If ever in the smokey mountains in tenn and NC . Look it up and do the run you will never forget the trip for sure... Robert

Alright, gentlemen! It was COLD that day! They had snow at the top of the Cherohala Skyway (which, BTW, is another beautiful drive) the night before! That's why the windows were up.
I let Joe do the driving, I videotaped some of it, got a little queasy from not keeping my eyes on the road. LOL We had a blast!
