Howie, do you know which road you will be driving when you come through the Tulsa area? Would love to hook up with the group here on Wednesday if we could. If we knew which road, we could watch for you and jump in at the back of the pack. No need for you guys to even slow down.

The furthest I ever drove in one day (solo) was from Cheyenne, Wyoming to Eau Claire Wisconsin, some 970 miles. I figure I can make St James Mo in about 10 hours with a couple of eating/gas/nature calls stops, provided I don't hit St Louis at rush hour or can find a three-digit Interstate bypass around the city. So if the Days Inn still has a suitable room, I'm going fot it!

You should pre-book your room for a better rate.

I'll get back to you shortly John about Tulsa. I have to try to figure out a time, but I believe last time we came right through the city because it wasn't during rush hour. You can just hear us chatter on the radios and know we're coming!

Got it! I'll be in St James Tuesday evening. Not sure exactly when. I'll make sure I'm fueled up & ready to go by 8:30 Wed morning. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone.

Ok, I looked up on an old-fashioned road atlas... we'll be coming through Tulsa city center, and then onto the I-44 tollway. We'll be exiting at Bristow to go along Route 66, having lunch at the Rock Cafe in Stroud at about 2 (if I remember from last time). So, you could meet us along I-44 at a service center, if there is one before Bristow, or just meet us at the exit. I hope this helps.

See you soon!!

Howie

This is what I needed to know, Howie. We will leave Tulsa around 12:00-12:30 and will take 66 to Stroud (I try to avoid paying the state turnpike tolls ). We'll try to reach Bristow at about the same time you all get on 66. We'll be monitoring the radios. You guys will be using channel 6? If we don't see you on the road we will meet you at the Rock Cafe for lunch.

Thanks for the help, Howie. See you guys in a few days! Have a fun trip. Stay safe.

I still use "archaic" Road Atlases and maps myself! I've never had a GPS and really see no need for one.

Yes, Channel 6 is the caravan channel... Roswell occurs in the 6th month.

Hey Guys.

Central hits the road tomorrow morning. Normally I would be meeting up with anyone in Joliet, but I can bypass that if there won’t be anyone from there.

So, please speak up! Lisa, anyone??
