Must see (Pictures from the Mtns today)

Today, I woke up really early and decided that I didn't want to go to school. I had just recently downloaded some nice music and just wanted to go out and run some old runs that I haven't been able to visit in a while. So I hop on the freeway around 8am w/ it being overcast and cruise for about 2 hours.

Finally I arrive, I pull over to stretch my legs and its sprinkling. The leaves have already changed into bright colors! (they haven't really started changing on our mountain range here). But yeah, Here are some pictures that I took from today. I had the perfect time today skipping school and running some different mountains.















It was so refreshing to just get out and have the entire mountain to myself all day. I stayed at a nice comfortable pace and concentrated on my lines and saved some gas so I could drive it over and over. I ran it 3 times through up and down.

But on the way home, I took the usual roads we run every so often. The leaves were challenging b/c they were like pasted to the road from the down pours and it was kind of fun but wore me out from compensating from them. Here are the pictures from 151.




my car was detailed a week ago, can you tell? lol.

I'm the same way... that road, i drove it for the first time in the same conditions. so today i was like ****. ill drive out there and do it again.

thanks for the compliments on the pictures. they are a little fuzzy b/c of the rain. it really messed up the quality b/c they are more crisp than what came out. I am using a Sony Cybershot DSC-H9. I really love the thing!

Damn i wish we had those kinds of roads here.

Its like an orgy in jersey. Any time of the day, theres traffic. You can go out at 3am and go on the highway, theres always something that causes a traffic jam.

I cant wait to get out of here. Im seriously considering places like maryland or north carolina within the next 3-5 years.

Great looking pics. The second pic is by far my favorite. Looks like one hell of a great road to drive as well.

Pictures are clean as hell!!! On the 13th picture, i think it would look sick if you had the car somewhere far in the picture. The red would really stand out, kinda of like a wheres waldo type thing. Clean none the less, BIG UPS.

Those pics make me really want to get to the mountains quick. We're building up in Asheville and will be there mid next year:

We'll have to hook up then and drive the Blue Ridge.

Yes, we're moving to Asheville next year. Going to maintain a place in FL too but we'll spend most of our time in the mountains. And for a 10% finders/inspiration copy fee, no problems
