So a couple of us were talking, and I know a few more of us were going to Eureka Springs for the Sept 18-22 Slingshots in the Ozarks GTG.
A few of us are driving up Wednesday, Sept 18th, so we're inviting all the rest of you to meet with us and join along the way.
1. For the Austin & South folks, we are meeting at the Buc-ee's In Temple (I-35 exit 304) at 8:30am, LEAVING PROMPTLY at 7:00AM 9:00AM. Be fully fueled ready to leave at 9.
** If you're coming up from SA/Houston, you'll want to take the 130 Tollway around Austin to Georgetown as going through Austin at that time of day is stopped traffic. If you need, I also live in Georgetown and have an extra bedroom so I'm sure we could work something up if you want to come up Tuesday night.
2. We will then drive to the Buc-ee's in Melissa Tx (Hwy 75 - Buc-ee's Exit Road 5167), arriving approximately 9:30AM 11:30am. Again, topping off fuel and ready to LEAVE at 10:00AM 12:00 Noon.
** There was some discussion about putting a lunch stop (Babe's Chicken?) in the Dallas area instead. I'm very open to that - add your comments below.
3. Final stop will be the Love's Travel Stop (US-69 Business exist for Eufaula, OK) right on the lake at approximately 2:30pm. Again, topping off fuel and ready to LEAVE at 3:00PM. Bypassed. Will find something along route depending on which highway we take.
4. That puts us into Eureka Springs right at 4:00PM 6:00pm - still daylight. (A couple different routes for this final section, we can discuss.) We'll break up there and go to our respective hotels.
If you want to join us anywhere along the way, just let us know.
I believe that there was a "Meet-N-Greet" planned for that Wednesday evening at the Best Western Hotel.
