This rules. And I had awesome fun at that random place in PF watching you guys and all the mutants that were hanging out. There were some amazing sights at that place.
I want to go back to Dollywood now!

Hey all, thanks for following along!
^That is quite the perspective and it's scary how close to reality it seemed lol
Our last day featured more time exploring Dollywood, a visit to Nascar Speedpark and rollin' down the mountainside. A ton of fun as usual. Was there ever any doubt?
Enjoy the pics.

The afternoon was spent hanging out in Pigeon Forge, with Nascar Speedpark as home base.
A few of us had the opportunity to shuttle ourselves over to the mountainside to try out something a little out of the ordinary....

Jason, this was a great TR!! I'm so glad that this bonus TPR trip worked out. It really was a highlight of my year. And thank you Deep South Tour participants for making us feel so welcome! Now we really do need to have an ECT reunion at Knoebels!! Maybe some DST folks would like to come along?!? It was so great seeing old friends and meeting new ones as well. Oh and let's not forget a great park or two...and lots of food!!
...as a side note, it was a very interesting ride home. I was slightly flying down the mountain (I do love curvy roads!!), windows down, singing loudly when something walked out into the road in front of me. It was a very lanky bear cub! Fortunately, for both of us, it ran back into the woods just as I got a little too close for comfort.
Anyway, I'm just glad that Carowinds presented itself very well. (except for the lunch maybe) I even got a hug from one of the ride ops after the insane Thunderhead ERT at Dollywood! All in all a great trip. As a genuine Southern Belle just let me say...Y'all come back now, hear?!?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
"No really. He bought that."
And I'm wearing it to my college orientation in a few days. Those first impressions, you know.
I wish we were all still there. You and Kerry coming along for a few days I think really made the trip.

That whole trip ruled, and the group of people we had was awesome, but having you and Kerry there for two days made it even better. Those days at Dollywood were just so much fun, and I can't wait to go back there again.
We all need to coordinate going on a trip or at least to a park next year. Although Kerry is likely mentally scarred for life now after spending 16 days with me on West Coast...
