I accept.

Does anyone want to see any sights around the area. You have the Battlefield, the Tennessee
Aquarium, Lookout Mountain, Ruby Falls, and Rock City, and the white water rafting outside of Cleveland.
I went to a ralley in Fla. and we went to the space center and out to eat and a santuary, the beach and some things like that. Any suggestions? sky

I want to accept the race challenge and also would like to see some of the sites if someone will let me tag along as I don't have a toad.

Jim & I too are toadless. We'll have to get creative.

Worst comes to worst, we should be able to rent a van while there.

We too will be toadless,but would go to visit sites if a rental ride was available to us. Rusty's idea of a van sounds pretty good .

Seeing that I haven't made my car reservations yet, I'll just rent a van.

Thank you Bill NY, you just solved a major problem for a group of people and you will be amply rewarded with food and possibly drink.

I would love to go to the Aquarium, the train history & current train activity(major in Chattanooga)would be interesting. Jim & I love to play golf & could bring our clubs for one day of golf if someone else is interested. We could hail a cab to haul us to a course.
So far Bill is the only one to accept a go cart challenge.

With everything you're envisioning, might we need a few more days to do all of this?

I also accepted the race challenge and would like to see some of the things offered in the area. Since it appears that we only have one vehicle available then the majority rules would have to be in order. I would prefer to spend the majority of the time visiting with other Barthers, that opportunity doesn't present it self often.

I thought the person who has the keys decides where we're going?

That's why I'm getting there on Thursday. I want as much "down-time" as possible. Who knows, next year it might be a week long event.

You may have the keys, but we have the food and drink

Bill, have you got your ticker yet? Most of the time it cost a little more to fly in or out of chattanooga, but have seen a few times choo choo was cheaper. and the same with Knoxville, McGee Tyson, not but about 100 miles from Chatt. If things work out, I will probablly come down on wed or thursday. take care. sky

Re: Activities
We will go with the flow. Very flexible. We are retired but we keep busy with the work on the compound re: horses, grass cutting, projects the kids need help with(endless list), taking care of grkids, etc.,then our own activities with friends, church, projects, barthmobile correspondence etc. The things we don't do alot of is golf, sight seeing, side trips etc. No go carts in our area or barthmobilers either. The latter will be the most fun to catch up with. Looking forward regardless of what we do or where we go or how we get there.
