The End ( Day 14)
After a 280 mile short day out of Auburn, it was decided to push this long day. Departure time was 8:00 AM. (that’s as close as we have been able to get to a 8:00 AM departure) The it was leave Bryant Arkansas on I 30 and go! Another totally cloudless day greeted us with temperatures in the 70’s. The only diversion was a 6 mile detour for and “Incident”, as labeled on the highway. Don’t know what the “incident” was. Anyway, without any personal incident , we got home about 3:00 PM having entered the Republic of Texas around 11:30AM. 310 miles today to add onto the 482 miles we did on the long day yesterday.
