Finally left Rutherfordton, NC yesterday after a 3 week stay getting the truck/camper ready and helping my son and his family get started in their new country home. I'm still catching my breath and decided to spend one more night in La Cantina hotel with wifi. Tomorrow I will head mostly south through Alabama and Mississippi using one of the few All-American Roads left. "The Trace" or Natchez Trace Parkway is 444 miles long with a 50 mph maximum limit and no commercial vehicles, signs, or distractions. A pure country road that skims the tops of the hills. It's going to be just what the doctor ordered. Chill time...
Bryon and I are in Guaymas tonight and will begin to work our way south along the west coast! If you're trying to get to GTO by the 4th for the volunteer effort, let us know and we'll meet up!
Thanks for the map! I was having a very hard time getting Google maps to show the actual route of the Trace Parkway. So your link shows the actual parkway drive.
Sorry to see the deer/bike accident. Hope no one has anything like this happen on this rally. See you in Mexico!
I'm still on the Natchez and really enjoying the ride. Here are a couple of photos...

1st night roughing it with camper at Meriwether Lewis campground on the Natchez Trace Parkway. Battery power & propane only. Very quite with only the sounds of coyotes hauling at the full moon.
Just before the moonrise at Tishomingo State Park, Natchez Trace Parkway.
