National Land Judging Trip: Day 1

Jennifer | May 2nd, 2008 at 6:42 pm

We ventured out this morning, destination Oklahoma. The first line of business was loading the SUV which should have been simple, but we all packed like we would be gone for a month, needless to say we crammed and jammed in every crevice until all bags were loaded. After this minor delay we headed south on I-79, then west via I-64. Where we went from there I am not totally sure, but when I woke up there were no beautiful rolling hills. In Kentucky you could see miles and miles, it was rather flat, a perfect place for farming. There were crop lands stretching out to the roadway, huge tractors and machinery were plentiful. We merged on to I-51 which dropped us into Memphis, Tennessee. A little FYI for anyone wishes to make our voyage in the future; it is really flat and really straight, be prepared to suffer from fatigue. Our navigators bravely guided us across the mighty Mississippi River into Arkansas. We arrived at our hotel around 10 o?clock WV time, 9 o?clock central time; here we are refreshing and preparing to continue our Westward adventure. ~Allyson
