Spring Break -- Road Trip
Spring Break -- Road Trip
Funny how things come together. Spring Break came a little early this year so we will be leaving on Sunday March 18th. If the weather holds BigDawgBrian and I plan to head to eastern Oklahoma. If conditions are to formidable up that way we will head more south into Texas.
Brian was born and raised in Oklahoma and says he knows a shortcut. We plan to ride some of the Natchez Trace Parkway in Mississippi, the Talimena Drive and Winding Stair Mountains in Western Arkansas and visit the Robbers Cave State Park in eastern Oklahoma but basically 8 days of just riding.

Gonna be a fun ride!
Really watch the weather tho...
Ran to east Texas last year to see my kiddos. Good weather on the way out, but on the way back... Was trying to outrun a system that was comming through. Held up just shy of Memphis and watched local weather plottin' tornados all over where I'd just come from.
Will be makin' the run back out that way on the Road sofa myself, within the next couple of months.

Sounds like a nice trip Gator. If you get on the Natchez Trace in Mississippi be sure to pack your patience. Speed limit is 45 and The law is usually hanging out every half mile( ok, maybe that is an exaggeration, but they work it hard and are famous for chicken **** tickets like 47 in a 45) Defiantly like the sound of the Ozarks though. Beautiful country through there.

Have a great time.
We leave Vero Beach tomorrow at 05:30. Planning to have breakfast in Williston around 9 then head to Mexico Beach for the first leg of our trip.
I'll try to post more as we progress along the trip.
