Highway 61 Visited

Dennis and I got a jump on the day and had a travelling breakfast on Highway 61 in Mississippi. The road was clear and straight, and we made good time heading down the Mississippi River Delta. We motored about thirty miles before heading west and crossing into Arkansas, our third state before lunch. We cruised westward through the Bauxite State, and didn't see a stop sign or traffic light for almost two hours. We made good time passing through cotton, corn, and tobacco fields, and past family farms with cattle and horses. It must be the foaling season, as we have seen dozens of calves and ponies huddling around their mothers.

The weather gods have been smiling on us, and the Woody has continued to run smoothly and without issue. At the end of today, as she brought us to Hope Arkansas, the birthplace of President Clinton, our trusty Garmin was showing 1974.67 miles since Boston. The car has been running cool, and strong, and she continues to draw interest wherever we are. At the diner where Dennis and I had the Tobacco Catfish Special, we were told that a couple Model As from Pennsylvania passed through a couple days ago. We are in good spirits and looking forward to seeing our friends in Texas.

Tomorrow, Addison, Texas, and the MAFCA/MARC National Meet awaits.
