March 31, 2007.  I went on a 210 mile ride today with Steve and Lori.  Steve had a route picked out that took us north up ASKA highway and then into Blue Ridge for lunch.  Then we came back thru Suches.  He did a great job of picking roads.  Lots of twisties and great scenery.

Meeting at Waffle House for breakfast.

Stopping along the ASKA highway for a break.  There were two guys in the river fishing.  Good thing we didn't have to cross this bridge because it was a wood plank floor.

Looking the other way.

Toccoa River Outpost.  We will go back there some day for lunch.

Toccoa Riverside Restaurant.  They are now only open for dinner.  Too bad.  So we went to Blue Ridge to look for someplace to eat.

We decided to give this place a try.

Pretty hoity toity.  Even cloth napkins.  I was nervous until I could see the menu.  It's kind of like a place for tea but nice menu and reasonable prices.  Lot of hats around so you could put one on and get in the mood.

Lori trying on hats.

Steve picked a godfather hat and did his Marlon Brando imitation.

Every old town has a train station.

Downtown Blue Ridge

Stopping at Dale's in Suches for a break.  He are me and Lori discussing something I am sure was important or profound.

One more stop in Dawsonville for a break and some gas.  Home at 4:00.
