We'll be there tomorrow after lunch sometime.
Looked for Dougs coach but it was out being test driven. I'll look for it tomorrow.
What is the best route from the factory? Go through Springfield?

Yes, don't go 76 same time much more difficult drive, I have driven here three different routes. Springfield then south on 65 would be the best way, how was the driving lesson? You gonna sleep in and let her drive here?

Might just sit in my recliner and watch the scenery go by!
She left at 10am and backed into her spot here at 5:30pm. She said it was very thorough and worth the time.

The driving lesson sounds really good. I think I am going to have to sign up Melanie for the same. Maybe I could take a nap and watch the race while we are making time across the open road. Congradts to your wife.

The main reason we did that is so I can take a break while Cindy drives and we could make a longer run on some days.
And if I would break a leg or something then we aren't stuck somewhere

Marc, great to finally meet you and Theresa yesterday! I appreciate the advice on getting to the factory via Springfield and 65. What is the best way to get from Ozark RV Resort to 65, 21 to 86?

When I leave, I will be heading North on 65. Looks like going back to Blue Eye, then North on 21/86 to 65, then North to 60/360 in Springfield to 44 and on to Newell.
