Hi,
I'm interested in a possible caravan from Texas. Although I'm posting from VA, my VERY LOOSE plan is to swing by my parents' place near Austin for a two week visit. I can't afford both a trip to TX AND a trip to WI. So, I may combine them into one big trip. Anyway, from there I'd like to try to make it to Kansas City... about 750-miles. It's a bit of a stretch. But the remaining 550-miles the following day will come more easily.
I have two odd goals during this long adventure:
1) Pass through TN and AR on my way to TX;
2) Pass through OK and at least SOME of NE along my way to the Fest;
3) Make it to the Fest on Friday
(a bit prohibitive for some potenial caravaners who actually work for a living);
and
4) Drive through at least part of MI along my way back to VA.
This whacky trip will allow me to tack another six states to my "States Traveled" map:
Although NE is already darkened, I later realized that I did NOT enter NE since I never crossed the river into Omaha. Instead, I must've traveled along Omaha's outskirts. So a little dip into NE will satisfy my sick little quest.
There's still LOTS of time to plan. So I remain flexible, even to the point of dropping the whole thing if necessary.
Take Care,
Scott
