That settles it for me then. Eli started crying when I told him I was going and said, "you'e going boom on the rocks without me!" Made me feel kind of bad!

If the kids did not have screwl I would have had one of them. I prolly will take one of them to Texas. They are both going to smorr in april

For the KC guys that are planning on heading down Thursday morning lets meet up at the Peculiar Flying J with the target of departing at 10am

I'm planning to meet you at the Flying J tomorrow morning for a 10:00 am departure.

I'm also planning on being at the Flying J about 9:30. Truck is getting an alignment done today, so as long as that fixes my little vibrations, I'll be there. Otherwise, I may be getting the front tires balanced first thing in the morning, and will post up if I get delayed and will just catch you guys in Joplin.

Thank you to everyone that could make this trip. We did close to 1000 miles of roads and trails with some pretty awesome scenery. Until the next one #train

So it looks like to me that without the first half of the trail, this is mostly ( almost entirely) a sightseeing dirt road trip. Am i close? Nothing wrong with that, just trying to get a mental picture.

Yep pretty much. However there was no signs or gates past the tower to suggest that that trail was private property. There were other trails we did not get to do with the weather moving in we decided to go directly to mulberry mountain and do a trail there.
