All right... here it is. We are setting the date for 4/14/07. There are two routes to choose from (long(2.5 hours) and short(1.5 hours)), but both are basically the same area. They will start in Buffalo, TN which is on the interstate (I-40 exit#143). Buffalo is about halfway between Memphis and Nashville - closer to Nashville. There are plenty of places there to get a bite for breakfast. Also plenty of large gas stations. The drive will head southeast towards Meriwether-Lewis National Monument and then to Hohenwald for lunch. From Hohenwald, there is a nice drive home in either direction depending on where you are returning. Thought we could do a group photo somewhere at the Meriwether-Lewis stop. Any photographers want to attend?!
