Same experience with the wife last summer. Early 70's 911 in front,
recent Mini Cooper behind. Sadly I was stuck in the wife's Protege5
instead of the MSM, with a big nervous dog and a carload of camping gear
rolling around in back. My wife was up for it; she videotaped the more
spirited bits. But I could see in the mirror though that the dog was
starting to look a bit anxious. I tried to imagine what day-old dog barf
might smell like and pulled over and walked him around for a bit.
We hated Cherokee. We really liked Bryson City. What a difference a
couple of miles makes.
