Sixth annual British V8 informal Fall Gathering in Townsend, TN.

[danmas]

Just to make sure we're all on the same page: the meet will be the first FULL weekend in October, which will be Thursday, Oct 6 through Sunday, Oct 9. Rooms are blocked out for that weekend. Mention British V8 to get the reduced rate.

For those who are not familiar with this meet, it is an INFORMAL gathering of hot-rodded British sports car enthusiasts, with no plans, no schedule, no registration, no fees, just a bunch of good ole boys (and girls) hanging out, having a good time. Come on down and join us.

We'll be at the Tally Ho inn, about two miles from the Smoky Mountains. Call 865-448-2465 for reservations.

Should we get bored, there are two (2) Craft Beer Tap rooms nearby.  One is Bluetick Brewery in Maryville, and   Smokey Mountain Brewery & Brew Pub in Maryville,  Another is located in Walland, but has no tasting Room (UGH). Knoxville has several; plus they are w/i 30 miles of Townsend.  These are optional things to consider plus Townsend now has a Winery as you enter from Maryville on the right .  See you all in the Fall.  Probably see you in May for the Annual Meet. (Formal if you know what we mean  :-).

We visited the Smokey Mountain Brew Pub in October 2014. It was....EXCELLENT.

Had to share this with the group. Who'd have thunk you would see this in Gahanna Ohio? This was in The Barn restaurant......great place to eat if you're ever in the area,  FYI.

On a related note, I won't be able to make the Fall Gathering this year unfortunately. I'll miss seeing everyone.

[britcars]

Scott, that will get Kelly's salivary glands working overtime.   :-)

[kstevusa]

Yep, Saw the Dickel in the "Place of Honor".   Went in a Hotel Bar in Ashville NC, way back when,asked for Dickel. They came out with the White Label Bottle, I exclaimed "I'm in a CLASS PLACE!"  Dickel wasn't available in too many place then.  Pjil's tuned in.
Too Bad, Scott, we will miss you
