Thursday was an easy day with registration and Driver's Meeting as the only things on the agenda

for the daytime.  We decided to try the famous Waffle House for breakfast.

We just HAD to take the tourist pictures,

After the meeting, we took off to do some sightseeing.

Downtown Charlotte has a great skyline

But we weren't after upscale architecture....We were following our stomachs to Bar B Q King

which was featured on Diners Drive-ins and Dives

If you are ever in Charlotte, stop in for their fried chicken dipped in BBQ sauce.  Delicious !

With full bellies, we started cruising around to see what we could find.

Wet Willies has the biggest alcoholic slushy bar ever

This was a bit shady....a Smoke Shop.

We made it out of there alive and headed back to the hotel.

We made it back just in time to get to the President's Meeting.  Lots of things discussed and

some great news for the coming years.   Elections were held for the National Officers and

I'm excited to announce that Lee Stubberfield is President, Randall Arnold is VP, Dan Everts is

Treasurer and Maurice Liang is Secretary.
