This is it 100%. He had it open on valentines day and I drove my charger by there and hung out for awhile. Lots of good folks that I personally know came by. It's a really neat place

To quote a famous philosopher, "I love it, I love it, khee, khee!" -Sheriff RPC

I think I know exactly what you are talking about. https://fb.watch/H1W-gBwOaI/? Hopefully this link works it’s a full 25 minute tour. If anyone wants to check it out on google maps or anything the address is publicly posted as “1181 Morrison Campground Rd, Kingston, GA 30145” they were open in February but I’m not sure how often. Here are some pictures from Facebook

Garrett seeing Skipper attempting to edge closer to him, Garrett waves out the window and applies more pressure to the accelerator to make Spittin' Cobra, his car, to jump ahead more.

Little after thought. Always wondered why the sirens on the sheriff's cars were blue with no red. Another reason I liked Road Pirates so much was cause of the scenes where the pull the sirens off the car so I always perplexed about the lack of red.

My name is from the character on the show ( he was in 2-3 episodes) and he was the town drunk. I got his name because I like to drink but I'm not an alcoholic ( about 3 beers at one time......I know....I'm a hard core bad boy!! LOL! ....also because he's funny. Have you ever seen Hobie Hartkins?

Thank you!

My wife just came in and played it for me! LOL! It's pretty good....I like the phrase, Daisy's a hick chick...lol!

I'll have to ask my wife about that. She's into country music! ( by the way, I like your emoji Road Pirate!)

I know it's probably a bit different since instead of mentioning the Dukes it was actually made for the TV movie from 2007 (I know) but the song Duke Boys Swingin' with John Anderson and Cowboy Troy is a really good song. Cowboy Troy's bit actually describes the show perfectly.

Growing up Dale Earndhart, Jr was my favorite. When I played the NASCAR game most recently I played as Danica Patrick for the fact she was a girl but never saw her race. The one I really like to root for now is Frankie Muniz.

For the first time in the race Jesse takes the lead. And the timing couldn't have been better. Emma made it down from Iron Mountain on her back up dirt bike just in time to stop at the intersection to watch the race. And what a sight it was to see her man in the lead on her very own postal dirt bike. She caught the corner of Jesse's eye and distracted him. He looked at her with a big smile and gave her a thumbs up and she blew him a kiss. It was such a distraction that he didn't notice a big rock. He hit it and it threw his bike off to the side and Skipper passed him with the Minnow in tow. Jesse's Yamaha then ran into the dirt where it hit another rock with such force that it catapulted him and the bike into the air and two seconds later, right into the Minnow. Lucky for him and the Yamaha they both landed on the pile of life jackets unharmed but clearly out of the race...... .......or were they? It would be unwise to ever count out crafty and wise Jesse Duke.

Feeling the freedom of no one in view, Garrett allows his car to slow a bit to give the powerful engine a rest a bit while resting back into his leather seat. He finally glances into his rear view mirror and his heart skips a beat as he sees Jesse's vehicle come across the curve and into view. Sitting up in his seat he presses the accelerator down forcefully the car jolts forward with increase speed. "Eat my dirt, Jesse," he says aloud with a confident smile.

You really don't

Watching the vehicles behind begin to edge and fight one another, Garrett eyes the open road ahead of him. Though knows anything can happen at any time...

I missed that, but that is chilling. Probably something everyone should consider about life.

Definitely a shocker. So sad to hear that his wife, kids and family have lost him and that millions of his fans will never see him race again. ABC News showed a snippet of his interview after his last race where he said each win was special because you never know when it will be your last. Chilling.

Keeping his attention on the race, Garrett refuses to fall into everyone's competitive talk and pushes the pedal down farther and a hint of a smile crosses his face at feeling the great power of the engine. Passing Jesse, he gives him a slight respectful nod, before speeding up front. (Sorry y'all I've been away from my computer a bit.)

I still don't understand how that surgically adjusted look ever became considered in any way attractive. Natural beauty is always so much better.

Sweet! I'm definitely going back. Hopefully one of the big events will be a weekend I have nothing else going on.

I’m over a month late to this but I just made my second visit to cooters in Luray on May 1st. I was passing through anyway so it was a perfect stop to eat and rest. It was my first time trying the restaurant but it was amazing. Unfortunately all the events were happening at the Nashville location but it’s always an awesome visit. I’m exhausted as well we did 3,000 miles.

Jesse is really excited about this race. He has never been one to embrace technology but is making an exception. After Rosco caught Elon Musk in the celebrity speed trap, Jesse and the boys broke him out of jail and in order to return the favor, Elon agreed to fix up Emma's dirt bike and convert it into a technologically superior racing machine that is only programmed to dominate races. It simply cannot lose. Unlucky for Emma though she broke her collar bone jumping a 60 foot wide creek two days earlier so asked Jesse to take her place. Filled with confidence that technology and AI simply cannot fail, Jesse was already daydreaming about that kiss Emma was going to give him in the winners circle.

Sorry, I'm a little late with my Miami Grand Prix summary, but the result changed slightly after the race, so it worked out in the end. As before this season, Kimi Antonelli didn't get the best start, and was passed by Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc, although Max almost immediately had a spin which lost him several places. In the opening laps, Kimi briefly retook the lead before Charles got it back, and then Lando Norris took second from Kimi. As that was happening, Isack Hadjar hit the barrier and Pierre Gasly flipped over before landing the right way up. Both drivers were fine, but it brought out the safety car. When the pit stops came around, Charles had a slow stop which slipped him back a little. By about the mid-race point, Kimi got past Lando and Max (who'd pitted earlier). In almost a mirror of Max's first lap, Charles had a spin on the last lap and lost a couple of places. At the checkered flag it was Kimi in the Mercedes in first for his third win in a row. Behind him were the McLarens of Lando and Oscar Piastri ahead of the other Mercedes of George Russell. Max fought back to fifth, and the video linked below shows Charles ending up in sixth, but a post-race penalty dropped him to eighth behind Lewis Hamilton and Franco Colapinto. The race highlights are here. There's now a 3-week gap until the Canadian Grand Prix from the Gilles Villeneuve circuit in Montreal.

F1 is finally back this weekend with the Miami Grand Prix, but I'll post about that later. First, I read the sad news earlier that Alex Zanardi died yesterday at 59 years old. The Italian driver spent a few years in F1 before moving to the US where he won the CART World Series in 1997 and 1998 with Chip Ganassi Racing. After that, he had another brief stint in F1 before returning CART. In 2001, he lost both legs in a terrible crash in Germany, and survived for nearly an hour with less than a litre (under two pints) of blood left in his body. Undaunted by the injury, he returned to various forms of motor racing., but it was racing handbikes where he really succeeded once more becoming a four-time Paralympic gold medallist and 12-time world champion. There was a minute's silence for Alex Zanardi before today's Miami F1 sprint race. There's a full article at bbc.com.

This case was made up by someone a few years ago. The cars are glued in place and there's a light in there that takes a battery in it so it can light up like a proper display case but I can't always get it to work. The car below was my dad's but he gave it to me when I was a kid after I broke the wheels off mine making it do jumps haha. I do know the bigger car came in the ERTL box that had the flag on the package and a picture of everyone on the backdrop inside.

THAT....in the words of Bill and Ted, is EEEEXCELLENT!!

I'm not sure. I had to stop and put some shine in my tank but I'm right in there with you guys. Actually, The Cracker Barrell 400 will be in my home town! WHO KNEW?? I never would've guessed!

I saw that today Hobie. I'm guessing the Cracker Barrel 400 is going to be organized and have a bunch of rules and regulations. No need to worry. That sounds boring compared to the Moonshine 400 so nobody will pay any attention to it. You still have the best race in the world. Now, what place you in anyways?

benny the QUILL

We certainly can't help with the job hunt but if you need picked up emotionally just pop a Dukes episode in and after you watch it jump on the HazzardNet and tell us how good it made you feel. Sure helps me anytime I'm feeling down.

take 'ER EASY greezy

From cootersplace.com: Our Smoky Mountain journey began in Gatlinburg back in 2002, where so many wonderful memories were made through the years. Later, we brought Cooter’s to nearby Pigeon Forge and continued building something very special with all of you. Now, after nearly a quarter century in the Smokies, we are preparing for our final season there. For the rest of this season, we’re planning a wonderful lineup of events, celebrations, reunions, stories, music, laughter, and memories with the people who helped make The Dukes of Hazzard such a lasting part of American pop culture. We are especially excited to welcome Catherine Bach, Tom Wopat, Byron Cherry, and Jeff Altman during this closing season, along with the wonderful staff here at Cooter’s who have loved and cared for our visitors through the years like family.

Jesse starts to gain ground on the pack and gets close enough to see Meadowmufn and Hoss ahead of him. He gets excited that he might not finish last after all. But this is the Mooonshine 400. It's not like any other race in the world. Here it is possible to be an old man riding an old lady's Yamaha dirt bike that is normally used to deliver mail and win after a disastrous start. Jesse knew that and his confidence started growing. If a guy pulling a yacht could do this well, so could he. "Only in Hazzard!" he laughed to himself and twisted the throttle as far as it would go.

hazzard county is wilder than any ZOO i've ever seen

"10-4 Thanks Skipper but the only tour I'm interested is the tour of the winner's circle with Emma planting a kiss on my cheek. But I don't really have much chance of winning now. I was stupid and trusted that tech junk when I should have known better. Maybe she will give me a sympathy kiss." In the meantime, Emma had given up on tech too after her computer blew up along with the one hooked to Jesse's dirt bike. Since there was no way she could use her remote control back up, she hopped on her other dirt bike and started down Iron Mountain, hoping to make it to the finish line before the race ended. She knew Jesse would need consoling after what he had been through.

Jesse got up to speed on the dirt bike but was way behind everybody. All he could see was a cloud of dust. He knew Hobie was somewhere up there, along with Skipper, Garrett, Hoss, Meadowmufn and everybody else but had he no idea who was in what place. All he knew was how embarrassed he was that he trusted technology. He had always taught the kids that simplicity is always the best policy and here he was, a full grown man who got taken in by the shiney new toy of technology. Now was his chance to prove to himself, Emma and the rest of Hazzard that races can be won on nothing but skill. And in his day, Jesse was the fastest motorcycle racer in North Georgia.

Jesse noticed Hobie slowing down and was insulted. "I don't need no charity! I was the dang fool who trusted all this tech garbage!" He looked up on top of Iron Mountain and noticed a puff of smoke. Emma's computer must have blown up too. Lucky for Jesse, the heat from the explosion melted the plastic fasteners and the charred computer fell off. "Good! It's just me and the motorcycle. Just like the old days with me and my '38 Silver Streak. Now it's time to catch back up. Looks like Skipper is way ahead now that Hobie slowed down"

my compurter is acting up but I'm going to try to make it. This smells like Shi.......Murphy's law! This is Hazzard!

I have an astronomy club meeting Saturday evening but you can start without me at 7:00 central time. I'll catch up later that night. It doesn't really matter anyways because with the technologically superior Muskcycle Jesse couldn't lose if he tried so we all know who is winning this. Besides, the race might only be one Hazzzard evening but we always stretch it out to a few evenings in HazzardNet time.

hazzard ZOOM meetings are in cars, not on computers.

YIPPEE! (Reaction to Dukes being on TV) BTW. Y'all have some interesting spellings of varicose and ukulele.

I just looked her up. I wouldn't give her a second look if she was standing beside Emma Tisdale.

Who is this Murphy fella? He a race car driver? I'll make you a bet Skipper. If I finish first you give me your Skipper hat. If you finish first I give you my red hat. If neither of us finish first no hats change hands. Bet or no bet? I have the best technology the world has ever seen attached to the Muskcycle so don't say you weren't warned. Technology cannot fail. It is superior to humans as you folks will find out during and after this race.

I just added a new type of fuel to my Moonshine Mauler! It's mostly made of shine and it makes a car go twice as fast! I'm going to try to market it as Uncle Jesse's Gas Treatment!

you got that right! Me and the Moonshine Mauler mean business!! We're gonna mop up the road with you guys and then party on Hobie's shine after, at the Boar's Nest!

Maybe his win will bring you luck in the Moonshine 400. There is a lot of pressure on the returning champion.

I missed it...but my Chase Elliott did win it and I was and still am excited about it. He's a great road racer so I am hoping he'll go for two in a row!

You've never really seen me drive, when I'm lit ,hot shot! Once Emma sees me feeding you my dust, she'll be all over me!! ( actually I'm hoping to catch Daisy's attention!! LOL! )......You better bring your big boy pants and every horsepower you can muster.......I've got special fuel designed to make my engine run faster than anybody's!!

Yep And you aren't going to believe what I have planned. You will never guess. Okay, I can't wait. I have to say it. I'll be on Emma's postal dirt bike but she is going to be operating it remotely on top of Iron Mountain where she can see the entire race. Ain't no way anybody can beat me and her when we team up. I have to give you credit Hobie with your buttermilk comment. I thought it would be fun to have a buttermilk in each hand so you inspired me by saying I was racing with one hand. I'm taking this to the next level. You might have noticed I've been delivering the mail in my truck lately. That's because Emma has been at Elon Musk's house these past couple days and they are working on the bike. I have to admit I am a little concerned. She is quite a catch. I hope he doesn't get any ideas and try to steal her from me.

Although I use my phone to check HNet when I'm out of the house, I make well over 90% of my contributions from a laptop. The ability to easily switch between multiple tabs and multiple sources, and having an actual keyboard to type on means that I can't imagine getting nearly as involved with smaller devices. Roger, I don't know how big your tablet is, but I'm sure the larger screen benefits your viewing of photos and videos.
