That ride was a fantastic one!
We took a road named "The Rattler" up to their house. Both Lesa and I were thinking that if this road was this amazing that the Dragon must be one Hell of a road. Well......the Rattler has it all over the Dragon. With tight bends and vertical rock faced walls (hiding oncoming traffic) on the insides of several of the coners as well as a lot of decreasing radius corners this was one Hell of a ride! We flat landers were in for a surprise with this one. Thanks for taking us on it!!

We stopped at a General Store both coming and going from Ground Zero. Was a great place to stop and relax.













There was a cool little stream out back of the store. Shade trees and smooth rocks by the sides. The air was again cool and crisp. Great place to sit and relax!





Lesa had to hold this tree from falling.........



.....and I apparently made a comment to that effect?
Nawwww....I would never do that!



Our gracious hostess! Usually she is the one posting the reports....must have been slacking? That or busy prepping BBQ and all the "Fixins" for a very hungry crew! I vote for the latter.





Transport was provided both up and down the long driveway!
And I caught Billy doing his impression of a Beauty Queen, complete with the perfect BQ wave!



Jack and Roger at full relaxation!



And it looks like, once again, Billy was trying to say it wasn't him doing whatever?
Yeah, UH HUH.....!





A meeting of the minds up on the top of the hill.



In addition to his very own personal portable SAWMILL, Todd has a couple of antique tractors to play with in his very own man cave down at the bottom of the hill and this rascal to make short work of about anything he chooses to aim it at!



Yours truly down at the man cave!



Thanks so very much for the hospitality, the food, and the incredible ride both to and from your "cabin" although that is a very fancy cabin I must say!
We all appreciated it very much!

Amazing pics! Your camera is so good that the photo of me without helmet or hat will have me losing sleep tonight. But that one of Todd's tractor and his "claw" is a keeper. He is so proud of that thing. When he first built and tested it, it broke the logs in half instead of picking them up. I stay away from it. Grin

We so enjoyed having everyone join us on the hill. Hope to do it again next year ... with more FL bikes of course.
