So my wife and I went on a 4 day trip to the Smokies with our local CCA. We left on Thursday and returned home yesterday. Pretty good turnout. We had 9 cars total- 2 Z3's, 1 e46 M3, 1 335 sedan, 1 335 M-Sport coupe, 1 330, 1 328, my 550, and a sweet 510hp Jag XKR

On to the pics!





A sweet Speedster we saw at a local car show.



A pretty cool waterfall



My 550, 328 and 335 coupe behind waterfall



And some random shots of my 550

Thanks....and by ToD you mean Tail Of The Dragon? If so, no these pics were along the Blue Ridge Pwy. The ToD was several hours away. We had thought about heading up, but ran out of time

Congratulations. Those are the most beautiful shots I've seen on the forum!
You just needed to edit out some of the duplicates.
