As a matter of fact, it's good time to sit back while the leadership talks with each other and considers routs and possibly picking up others along the way. I'm deciding whether to camp or motel. And putting a Nomad back together.

I want to do that but she isn't up for that long of a ride over 36 hours. I actually would do it in 2 days if it were just me...I'm a little off that way.

Might consider US412? Tennessee to New Mexico. I know it's a good route through AR, OK & NM

Ok Amy, you didn't give me a chance to mention that we are going. Jeez! Anyway when the date gets closer, we will be checking here to see everyone's planned routes and dates and try to meet up along the way.
