In my travels I have met up with smarti and jen, been blown off twice by sonic (I refuse a third date) and once by pepe (who said 7am was too early). Nancy has avoided me twice by not even setting up anything.

 

Southern tour in two weeks...one night in each of these towns, usually downtown near the tourist area/bars....

Virginia off I77 first day

Murphy North Carolina

Tusculusa Alabama

New Orleans two nights (Sazarak)

Clarksdale MS.

Memphis

Nashville

Louisville

And home.....

No excuses this time fancy feet....

Anyone else want to get a drink or just say hi for a minute?

pm me, you crazy copper.  nice you are doing clarksdale, deep in the delta. 

Let me know what day you're going to be in Murphy.  That way I can make sure to be somewhere else that day.

 

You'll probably end up at the casino, but Peckerwood Ridge seems like a more fitting spot for you.

Saz- will email...bourbon Orleans hotel. Monday and Tuesday 18/19th... Wife says I can have one hurricane as I turn Indian on rum...Not a bourbon drinker but will try one of yours too...Then beers. 

 

Boo- Saturday 16. I don't casino. I do drink and BBQ.  

you don't want a hurricane.  they are disgusting.  too much cheap booze and friggin pink kool-aid.  an abomination.

Ramos Gin Fizz, Sazerac , or Pimm's Cups for trad cocktails.  Beer if you must.  Nicely chilled wine in summer.

 

Bourbon Street is foolish, go to Frenchmen for music, restaurants, bars, fun.

Go up to the levee and look at the river.  

It's going to be deep swelter, prepare to sweat.  it gives a nice sheen to our skin.

I have not avoided you twice!  And this time the closest you are getting to me is still 2 1/2  hours away!

Can't blame you.  I never cared for casinos either.

 

If you have some spare time before rolling into Cherokee County, you might want to take your motorcycle over to the Cherohala Skyway.  It runs just west of Robbinsville about 40 miles north of Murphy.  Winding road up in the mountains.  Great views.  A perfect road for a bike ride.

Been there...bringing some that haven't traveled the area with us. Back of Dragon out of Virginia, Foothills Parkway and Tail of the Dragon on the Saturday....you close to anything? 

Nancy is in Tennessee but not the east, not the West and not the center. She is 2 1/2 hours from everywhere.

I was close to the edge, but backed away.

Actually, 6.5 from Memphis, 3 from Nashville, 2.5 from Murphy!!

Coming down the east side, Bristol and such...to get to Seiverville or Gatlinburg or ..........  Fill in the place that a geographical oddity.....Could just be lunch. You can bring your dude, no funny business....at least in front of everyone

Still waiting to make the list...

Is this some type of sting operation????

you see he left texas completely off the list  . hmmmmm

yeah not far enough south for me... I'm over 9,300miles from the nearest stop and my mechanic insists my car has no submarine or aqua mode so i'm not making any meetings.

Is this anywhere near the Cavern ?????
