Got My Uhaul Truck & Tow Dolly And Gonna Load Today, So We Can Get On The Road
« on: August 23, 2013, 05:16:02 AM »


     Yep, we will be heading out tomorrow morning! Sure not gonna be running my usual speed though! This truck has a fifty something gallon gas tank and only gets about 5-8mpg! And we've got about 600 miles to go! So, you can bet that I will be trying to get the most I can, as far as mpg out of this thing! Can't wait to get to Arkansas, get unloaded, truck turned in and be able to breathe a sigh of relief! Got a full day today though, getting that thing loaded up! Catch you all later on!  ;)

     Thanks brother, appreciate that. Sure be glad, when it is all said and done. Gotta go through the Atlanta Area and then Birmingham and the next one of any size, is Memphis. Not too many cities of size, except those and I know from experience that it could be worse. Atlanta can be a bear and Birmingham as well.

Done the trip to Barber from Central OK and will do it again.  Some pretty country in North Alabama, but not much for big towns as you say.

Moving back to AR now?

            Yeah, I made it to Barber once, pretty cool and want to do it again. But, I'd like to do it on a bike. Went in my Car last time, but I had my Daughter and my Dad with me. Maybe not this year, but maybe next year we can get together and go? Yeah, I'm liking the areas, just not the BIG cities.

            Leaving out for Arkansas, sometime tomorrow. Had some things interrupt loading the uhaul truck and then there was the rain that is supposed to be setting in for the weekend.  ::) Doing our best, to head out tomorrow, one way or another.  ;)
