You do not need to seek Adventure, It will find you
After the Hurricane Helena ravaged Western North Carolina, we abandon our plans to attend the Spyder Rally in Maggy Valley. We head out to Peaks of Otter Lodge, then to Breaks Interstate Park for some sightseeing and hiking, then over to Wise VA to visit family.
Adventure follow us as our lodging reservations get canceled at the park in mid trip, and our lunch restaurant catches on fire during lunch.

We are proud to be Can-Am On-Road Ambassadors for another year.

Miriam, thank you for showing me the stairs! Your video was so precious. Linda Johnson

[SpyderRichard]

I love adventures, especially the ones with no stairs😂. Cornbread is my kryptonite! Cheers you two!

[PurpleOnThree]

Way to make a new adventure! John, Of course you will keep listening to Miriam because she is such a smart cookie!😂

[DocLord]

I also abandoned my Maggie Valley trip. Went to the Ozarks in Missouri last week instead. Enjoy the fall wherever you go.

[PurpleOnThree]

All those poor folks 😢 after the flood. 🙏🙏🙏

[rayhjohnson]

Hi guys thanks for the shout out. Stairs are fun. Alternate plans can work out. We didn’t get away but have ridden around our area some. Storms keep getting in the way and now family obligations ( granddaughter’s wedding, which was terrific) and I will be active in the Kairos Prison Ministry program the first two weekend in November. We are planning a get away to NYCity for a Christmas tour and Broadway Show and Radio City Rockets in early December soon after the Tree lighting. Might try a run up to Dahlonaga Ga area to catch some color if there is any left after the Kairos event. Stay safe John, that Miriam.likes tough hikes. Hope to see you guys before your Alaska Adventure. Will stay in touchb. Miss you two!

[SpyderWayne]

Both my plans A & B to meet you two were washed out. So, I will need to work on plans C or D and there's still many letters left in the alphabet 😂👍

[michaelfealtman]

Nice plan C trip. Our plan B trip worked out great. Good weather and some nice rides to see what changes happened since the last time we were there. Right now we are in Kane, PA, visiting friends and seeing the sites. Take care.

Love this video... Miriam was just not feeling it yet!
People need to take a lesson from your little adventure. The lesson is to roll with what happens. I worked for someone who had a saying. "Make a decision, pick a direction and go. If it turns out not to be the right direction or decision then make another plan but always keep moving forward. Sitting around and quitting gets you no where."
I can't wait to Spyder in that area of our beautiful country.

[judithmccoy]

Miriam- Linda and I didn’t get first right of refusal on hike with stairs 🤣🤣 So glad you guys did get away for a few days. Missed all being together in Maggie Valley. Wish everyone the best!

[SpyderWayne]

Pssst... hey John, when your better half asks if you're getting her good side, the only correct answer is.. "of course, you don't have a bad side" 😁👍

[leshemingway]

John and Miriam this was a excellent video. I really enjoyed it . Yes some plans fall through even the best plans. Mother nature can hit at any time and really mess up plans. Yet this trip was very interesting. We often go the the Smoky Mountains There going down the mountain to NC there is a field were many Elk roam. It is interesting watching them for sure. It was good that you didn't take the Spyder. Safe travels!

[SethDunn]

It was a pleasure meeting you both at Peaks of Otter. Love the videos. Adventure definitely finds you. Safe travels!

[johnlenart]

The fire truck reminded me of a time while at a Super 8 one year of being aroused by an alarm at midnight. The motel's dryer alarm sensor was activated and 2 trucks were dispatched. Got great night 📸. The alarm was the same as ones during my factory training days. Orderly and quick exiting of the building was properly achieved. No fire, just a sensor. Plan B, get back to sleep. Lol. 👍👍

Some random thoughts:
First off, Pray for the people and communities in the Smoky Mountain region. Their alphabet is probably running short.
Secondly, An unanticipated change in an itinerary can sometimes bring an unexpected reward. Once while traveling we stayed a night in Pontiac, Illinois with the intention of moving on to Springfield the following morning. We had noticed some roadside signs for a local history and war museum in town. We decided to go to the museum the following morning and it was wonderful. Also, it turns out this town is somewhat known for large painted murals on buildings throughout the town. A unplanned happy, memorable day.
Thirdly, Off interstate travel I’m sure is a favorite of most of the people on this channel. Darn that ticking time clock.
Lastly, John. Since Miriam has you “hiking” throughout the Appalachian Mountains, perhaps you could take her for a “stroll” through some distilleries in bourbon country.

Oh yeah. BTW. We watched “Long Way Round” over two nights. Thanks. We really enjoyed it.

[SpyderChrisYT]

Avoiding cornbread when it’s served sounds easier than it looks.

[johnnystanley]

If don't mind me asking how many miles are on your spyder Johnny out of ky

[sharilynpeters]

Enjoy your videos, but your music is way to loud. Sometimes we can't even hear what you are saying.
