  1. October and Fall in general is 'Dukes' season to me for some reason.  I think its because that's typically the time of year we would venture up to the Smokey Mountains area, which means trips to Cooter's and just being in the deep south region ('Hazzard country').  The last few years working for Ben Jones at all the Cooter's stores this time of year has just added to that feeling!

  2. Here is the current state of things at the end of October- Its really starting to look like the Hazzard garage we know.  Big thanks for my awesome team: My wife Dawn (who it turns out is a great scenic painter), Walter (who it turns out is a great carpenter and electrician!), and Joe, Nelu, and Shannon who keep the store running while we tear it apart, and scare children with the construction noise!  Its a particular challenge working around the General Lee- we have to be very careful swinging ladders, lumber, and paint around it.

  3. In Hazzard, the more things change, the more they stay the same.  This is also true at Cooter's Place in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.  About a year ago, Cooter's in Gatlinburg relocated to nearby Pigeon Forge due to unforseen circumstances.  The new location does not have the 'familily fun center' gocarts and indoor mini golf.  However, the new store brings opportunities to build new fun experiences for Dukes fans to enjoy.  In addition to easier access and expanded room for events and more cool Hazzard merchandise and collectibles, we are now buiding in the famiilar setting of the Hazzard Garage. The General Lee needs a cozy home after all!   This will be just the first of more things to come over the coming months, so stay tuned!      

  4. I'm adding a junkard outback of my Hazzard Garage model and I'm hoping ya'll can help me with some suggestions on what cars to add to the model.  Many times in the series, Cooter mentions having something 'out back' (like the extra Chargers that time they made decoy General Lees).  Who can remember other examples?
