Third Day of Travel

We Are We Today

Sam’s Club

Texarkana Texas

If you are reading this on a mobile device, scroll down to the bottom and click on the web version to read it clearer.

Today is our third travel day heading to Arizona. We have had a great time for four days in Nashville, doing the touristy thing and visiting family.

We left Two Rivers Campground at 7:30 this morning getting onto TN 155 north and then west, to take us around the top of Nashville. Taking exit 27B to I-40 heading toward Memphis. I-40 takes you around the top and down the west side of Memphis where you cross the state line into Arkansas. About the last 5 miles in Tennessee and the first 10 miles into Arkansas, I-40 is rough enough to jar the fillings out of your teeth.

Carrying on to Little Rock where we took exit 159 to bypass I-440 to I-30, where we continued onto Sam’s Club in Texarkana, TX our destination for tonight. Making our total mileage of 503 miles for today. Yes, a long day on the road, which I did not mind after not driving for four days. We have a destination that we want to be at by end of day, Monday Oct. 28th, so that is why the push on the miles travelled.

Pat mentioned in her blog about visiting my cousin and wife at their daughter and sons-in-law’s place in Nashville. For those who like the newer country music, Their SNL is Jesse Slack, who is a song writer and a great singer, who occasionally does gigs in Nashville. He also collaborates and records with a very talented Singer by the name of Robyn Ottolini.

For those of you who have Spotify on your mobile device, do a search and check them out. You can call me biased, because their family, but I think they’re great.

Thanks for checking in, until the next time, take care. You can also check out Pat’s blog.HERE

    1. Yes on the move for four days now. Great time in Nashville. Yes a long day and made even longer when we checked in at Sam's Club to say we were staying the night. Management didn't think we could so we back tracked about 5 miles to a welcome center that has overnight RV parking.

  2. Heading west now, I see. If I travel from Rockledge, Fl this fall, I'll be traveling much of your route. Be interested in your info on the road conditions. ✨️

  4. I've heard that 40 is really bad this year. Lots of damage to rigs. Boo on Sams Club for not letting you stay there.
