      I took time today to really study the maps and speculate on next year's route........I don't have a clue. Many, many possibilities.

        If we start in Arlington and end in Charlotte, NC, when we get to Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia and North Carolina, depending on which route we take, we will have a scenic drive. We will be traveling between I-40 and I-20.

          Ok, I'll start a thread for another Western Scenic Tour. This would be somewhere probably during the first two weeks of June unless there is big conflict with everyones schedule. The last one in 2008 was small, I think we started out with half dozen cars and had 1 or 2 drop out along the way as they continued on with other pre planned events.

            OK, so now should we start theorizing on if he meant a couple fortnights?

                      well.....once the stops are announced, surely (and don't call me Shirly!) many of the locals and those familiar with the different areas will recommend or suggest routes to travel (long before the "recommended" route is announced); having said that.....if we go to North Carolina.....about North Carolina....during the year that we went from Florida to New Jersey, went through Mt. Airy, NC (?)....I got lost leaving the town, so.....I'm driving along, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, then....no cars in front of me, none behind me.....(very scenic though)......then.....I thought I heard banjo music (deliverance?).......UH-OH....................U-TURN!........high speed back to wherever I started on this road......wow..........

                            Knowing that it will start in Arlington, I booked a room for 30 May thru 2 June at the Holiday Inn Express 2451 E. RANDOL MILL ROAD.

                                It's not the destination, but the journey and the friends you make along the way that counts.
