Day 68, Wednesday, Nov 9: Broken Bow, OK to Cracker Barrel in Nashville, TN (just west side)
We had fog in the morning for maybe a couple of hours…not a big deal. The road to route 30 from Broken bow (route 70 as well)…was weaving and winding and surface wise okay. Little Rock AZ was the biggest problem with construction squeezes and curbs through a section that were about 6 inches from the white line on the right…didn’t want to make any wrong moves with our 8’ 6” wide class A! We were both glad when that ended. There were LOTS of trucks on route 40 (typical!) and if we had a choice this time it was going to be driven on the weekend but family matters prevailed so we had no choice but weekday. After Memphis the trucks thinned out dramatically going east…a good thing.
We ended the day at the Cracker Barrel in Nashville, TN just east of Nashville. I wanted to miss Nashville traffic in morning and get as far as we could today. We were all glad to stop for the night!
Note to self: avoid Nashville and do the beltway (860?) that totally avoids Nashville no matter what time of day. Route 40 thru Nashville has a lot of weaving and get in left lane, then right to stay on 40…more than we’ve seen anywhere…might explain the long accident problem.
