That is when we started our trip. At first when we mapped out our path the time was 1 day 8 hours and I would add Oklahoma, New Mexico and possibly Kansas to my list of states. But I wanted to add more states than that, so we did a re-do and I managed to add Tennessee, Mississippi, AND Arkansas for only 3 hours extra. It added 3 hours to our whole trip and even though it was more mileage and gas it cut out all of our toll roads. Based on the few toll roads we have been on so far I'm sure missing them made up for the extra mileage. My personal opinion of toll roads thus far is as follows- EXPENSIVE and NOT at all worth the money.
The only difference in our actual path is we went to Phoenix first then Flagstaff.
First new state license plate of the trip. Tennessee and Kentucky both are BEAUTIFUL states, ah the trees were just gorgeous, it was sad to go to Arkansas after haha.
Our 20 min detour to Miss's sip
Initially we were a little worried we might actually be stopped by the Mississippi but we made it all the way through the Southern states with no issues.
Last new state of the first day on our journey.
David drove about 2/3 of the first day. I kept saying I would drive whenever he was ready to have a break but he just kept driving. What a great hubby, he definitely takes great care of me!
