DRIVE/HIKE/DRIVE/DINE

Our local PCA group, Appalachian Region of the Porsche Club of America is very active.  Some PCA chapters are all about competition events.....ours thankfully is about enjoying our vehicles, the awesome driving experiences available here in the Asheville, NC area, and time with other members.  This past holiday weekend we gathered to enjoy a Drive/Hike/Dine outing.  

Personally I was a bit concerned that the roads and locations stops would be too crowded to allow groups of 10 cars places to park but we got an early start to the day and everything worked perfectly.

My photo account is lacking.....blame it on being caught up in the enjoyment of the day.  Here's a short overview.

 Parking lot meet up.  Heading out after our 'safety' instruction briefing.

It was such a pleasant day to drive the Blue Ridge Parkway with its slower speedway......allowing more time for rubber necking.  Did you know the Parkway restricts more than 10 cars traveling in a group?  That's why we had to break up into several sections, staggering the start times.

 Long distance view of the fabulous cars...so many I couldn't even get them all in the photo.

We were assigned a sunny spot so out came the flag we use as a dashboard protector.
