Tail of the Dragon Drive & Photoshoot 05.

Ok as some of you already know I have been planning a Drive through the mountains of North Carolina on June 25th and 26th (Saturday and Sunday). Hopefully this time it does not rain in June and we will definatly not be seeing any snow around this time in June. I plan on doing a Photoshoot in Charlotte NC early Saturday with Clint from Hightach.com and he is arranging access to a Studio with the Cars and the Ladies. Right now we do not have confirmation yet but we will soon find out asap. I have two ladies modeling for us and I will post up the pictures as soon as I can.
For Saturday June 25th after the Photoshoot we can drive to the mountains for a late lunch and meet up with Urotrash (Dean). Later we can go out to explore a few of the roads as in Cherohala Skyway, Rte 28, Rte 64 before it gets dark and if we have enough sunlight left for the day we can stop at Bistro By the River. Bistro By the river is a Barbeque place on the river which I can arrange for us to sit outside next to the small waterfalls on the river at the Restaurant. It's sort of an upscale Restaurant but with a touch of class. Also they have a Wine list availible and have some Pasta dishes also. http://www.bistrobytheriver.com/home.htm.
I would like to stop at the Bald River falls which is a Huge waterfall around 80 feet tall right off the side of the road about 30 feet for some wonderful pictures. It is a great waterfall for background shots and a good place to rest from driving. Here is the website of the Waterfalls...http://www.ncwaterfalls.com/tellico_tn1.htm. Sunday I plan on driving the Dragon all day since there will be no big crowds to worry about. I will be contacting Killboy.com about the meet and I will be talking to a few of the Hotels for any group rates including Tapoco Lodge near the Dragon, Frymont Inn (Franklin) and "Days Inn" (Franklin) which I will be staying at if anyone needs to find a room on Saturday night. Some of you live sort of close so you can drive the next morning if need to be.
I know I have talked to a few of you and some of you have other plans but let me know via PM or post here if you can join in for that weekend. Hope to here from some of you soon. -Bruce

 

For Saturday we will be meeting at the Studio around 10am. I will PM those directions to everyone that will be attending the Photoshoot. Depending on how long the Photoshoot will last we will be leaving and heading to Franklin NC to meet up with UroTrash later in the evening. Clint is very precise with details on the pictures of cars he photographs for which I like his enthusiasm and determination as a photograpgher.
For Saturday evening we will be going to Bistro By The River in Tellico Plains TN near the Nc Border unless we run out of time. If the restaurant seems a bit high since its a Gourmet place then let me know and their are other places to eat if everyone decides on another place. I want to keep Sunday specifically to drive "The Dragon" especially since I have a certain song set up for that day for the video lol. I will keep everyone in touch through PM's. Hopefully all these 355's and 348's don't overtake the Photoshoot and the world or are they already?? Hope to see some new faces and different Ferrari's in the mix. Should be an exciting weekend.

Btw if anyone would like to see the pictures of the models then let me know. I will email those pictures to you since some of them are not worksafe. The photos are not too bad to look at your work computer but I do not want them to be copied from this website by other people and used elsewhere.

 

Ok , here is only one picture that I can post up. The rest I have sent to you guys email style.

This is one of the models I was trying to get for her to come out with us but she is in NY right now doing her thing with some other modeling company. www.nikkimilleronline.com. She is originally from Florida but moved to NC not too long ago. She was a Finalist in Stuff magazine back in Sept 03 if i remember correct. She was in the top 10 out of all the girls in the US. Plus you should see her friends too. GOOD LORD !!

Btw I will be contacting those people today that are still wanting to attend. We will be meeting up at The Tail of the Dragon at 10am Saturday morning for a pre run. My cell is 336-340-9542 if you need to get ahold of me.
Btw if Ristorante Paolettie's in Highlands NC is too expensive we can always stop at a Wendy's after Supper if anyone wants to. Our reservations will be at 6-6:30pm and we will have a reserved spot for us to park at.
