Agree, it's a long haul from Illinois but with a Camarovan, it could be a fun trip. I'm more concerned about the weather than the distance.

Aren't you retired? How can a whole month be bad?

You will learn, when you are retired, someone always has plans for things for you to do. LOL
With 9 grandkids the end of the school year is busy!!!

I'm still hoping to make the Twin City Cruise this coming summer!!!

as of right now, I'm planning on going. I have a hotel room reserved and unless something comes up, I'll be there. Are you planning on doing the whole trip straight through or maybe stopping oin Memphis for a night or something like that?

I'm too old to make the trip straight through. Looks like Little Rock or Memphis might be a good places to stop. Just depends on departure time and route. My reservations are from Thursday to Sunday so I'd probably leave early Wednesday morning or noon at the latest. Just my thoughts at this time.

I'll add that If I can get a truck in the next couple of months, I'm going to consider trailering my car down there. The weather is going to be a major factor on my decision. The month of May can be iffy here. Between here and there, the possiblilty of spring T-Storms with hail is high.

I know, I'm paranoid.....

I'd probably not go somewhere before I'd ever trailer my car. Only way she's going on a trailer is if I'm taking it to the track and I've got slicks on it.
