I feel ya Dave. I've been looking almost everyday also.

I do not have that DVD. Sorry.

I just called the Kerville Schreiner park to ask if we need to bring bed linens. The answer is no, bed linens are provided. They did recommend you bring your own towels.

Yep, looking forward to this!!!

There's a song in my head...

'Cause I'm leavin' for a truck ride
Don't know when I'll be back again
To Texas I'll luv to go...

Status update:
speedo installed, it has a trip meter but the knob broke, maybe the new 1 will get here in time.
secret device installed.
new seat bracket installed.
stock battery box installed with mounting for starter relay and ig box.
tank is clean and mounted but I screwed up on the petcock, hopefully a new 1 will get here in time.  Backup plan is the old tank.

Deb and I are all packed and ready to start our trip in a few hours.  It is dry here - but it appears we are going to hit significant rain between Louisville and Nashville......then maybe again near Memphis.  At least the motorcycle will be clean and dry in the enclosed trailer!

We would like to stop at the Bass Pro Shops pyramid in Memphis for a chance to see this amazing place, stretch our legs and buy some unnecessary plastic items.  The amount of crime reported in downtown Memphis worries me a little bit, and there are a lot of reports of vehicle break ins - one previous employee stated they average 4 a day and the security at Bass Pro Shops doesn't care.  More recent reports are more positive.  Perhaps we will give them a call when we get in the area and ask them about the current security status.

Sort of like ... moss?    
It will be good to see y'all again.. and to meet Paul!

We made it to Jackson, TN last night.  We tried to find a campsite but none were available at the several places we called or stopped at.  Evidently the folks who traveled to see the eclipse are headed home.

We were able to get a nice overnight parking spot at the Cracker Barrel in Jackson - there are half a dozen other folks parked here with us.  The lady at one campground warned us not to stay at any campground in Jackson, TN - but the Cracker Barrel was fine.  We asked our waiter about it and he said the campgrounds are all in neighborhoods with a lot of crime - but the Cracker Barrel was in a good area.  We felt much better about staying here, especially with so many overnight neighbors.

We are 120 miles from Memphis and will stop by the Bass Pro Shops on our way through - if we had stopped las night it would have been in the middle of the evening rush hour, and I just didn't know what to expect for Memphis traffic that time of day.

Most likley we will br driving in rain from here all the wayk to Little Rock.  The weather after today should be clear for the rest of the drive to Kerrville.
