Title: Franklin, NC
Post by: Kwajdiver on June 24, 2008, 05:13:37 PM
Just checked in to the Sapphire Inn in Franklin, NC.   While looking for a hotel, ran across a beautiful Silver Eagle, parked at a tire store.   This Eagle, white, with a nice looking gray set of strip, looked really sweet.

Just wondering if it anybody's on the web?

The Silver Eagle belongs to a local Gospel group, "Blue Ridge" and is usually parked at their leader.... Marshall Henson's Tire shop.

Gosh Bill, now that you've taken the 'Grand Tour' of the town and seen all the highlights...... ;)

And watch that traffic light....it's murder in morning rush hour.

NCbob,

I did a search on Blue Ridge and could not come up with a good website showing a picture of their Silver Eagle. If you have the time someday would you mind sending me a photo? I would like to have it for my collection. I would appreciate it very much.

Thanks,

Paul

Spoke with NCBob, won't be able to hookup for coffee, but that's what happens on short notice.  We'll catch him in Florida.
Paul, will ride by and take a photo of the white coach on our way out of town.  We're headed to Bryson City, NC to ride the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad.  Afterwards we will start working our way south, toward the Atlanta area for the night.

Sorry we missed you two....but there'll be another opportunity this winter for sure.

The good news is that Mama is going to last another year. Now, if we could just get the price of diesel down.....

Have a safe trip.
