The view from our window at the Fontana Village Resort, 11 miles from Deal's Gap. Yes, all that stuff does fit into a Miata!

Driving through the Smoky Mountains late Sunday afternoon.  A lot of people had stopped and hired inner tubes to float down the river - awesome idea on such a stinking hot day!

Mike Sliger's Silver 99 Sport with cool black stripes.  The running commentary Mike gave us on the CB during our drive on the parkway was awesome - all sorts of interesting facts about the history of the area etc.  Thanks Mike  :) Mike making an appearance through a tunnel on the parkway.
