A little road trip.

Heading out tomorrow (it was supposed to be today) the weather dictated otherwise.
 
It's a low impact trip. 300 miles will probably be a big day.
 
We will be heading west from Lake City Florida. Along the Florida panhandle coast. Most likely turning north around Mobile AL. After that there are no plans other than to spend a week or so riding around.
 
I hope to provide some mild entertainment, or someone to ridicule. Whatever seems appropriate. :D
 
A screenshot of why we waited. We weren't going to ride into that on purpose. Just saying.

Random pictures of today. We rode along 98 on the Florida panhandle coast between Wakulla Beach and Apalachicola. 04b766cfb545a5187fe631b1ed488dcc.jpg55d45599ae30789c03950c96a40d8e44.jpge9abf89f65b4125bf7a2ec60c8a5e6e1.jpg13e9bb16179cb952b2855ea52663e9d9.jpg9c17858d2149716234fc2490b1eb39a6.jpgb350e9c87c38b553c8d7fe63cf128a0a.jpgf10bb9d4f809f777553445208e36b35a.jpg

Not a lot of road pictures. Heavy traffic and construction put a damper on that. We rode along the coastline and caught the Fort Morgan-Dauphine Island ferry across Mobile bay. Which is full of oil rigs.

It was a late start out of Mobile. Up 45 to Louisville MS. Up the Natchez trace to Tupelo. Tomorrow we will start turning east.b7c8bcc40e880cf5faab0ad1db6fdc5a.jpga3da4d5e48e9886f2c8a9ff8470b7e81.jpg1f239de60848a1ec5ced9d9d8e814daf.jpgcd65fc898cac4b787b654dd6f4e06ac3.jpg4a21eb3ed31a02f13e98b93b178cc331.jpg76ec4aec6b9490814edbe31e477624d2.jpg

Up the Natchez trace from Tupelo Mississippi. Right turn (east) on 64 to Monteagle. Up and over through all the semitruck traffic trying to kill us. Staying just outside of Chattanooga Tennessee. We'll get a late start tomorrow waiting out the rush hour traffic. Chattanooga has horrible traffic without dealing with that... 4f50a263ebacc6e305411cc200ba587b.jpgdf203291c0887681fb09afa19f01f506.jpg4628e024ee699f53d530dff30977b683.jpg04fff96e5123629ccd906c0446a297d4.jpge22eb7c533a993ed3f60441a34f57595.jpgbb94fd27b7da6757ad978d7bac52a7b4.jpgf94340864a887b1da32b45687c0d6060.jpg

Really enjoying the ride report, @fddriver2 . It's been awhile since I've been able to get out for a multi-day road trip, so am living a bit vicariously through your posts. Enjoy!

Today's adventure.
 
It was cold in Jasper TN this morning. Lady at the front desk said 38*. It didn't feel that cold, but it was in the 40's for sure. That's cold for Florida boys.
 
We did I-24 through Chattanooga. :P No one ran us over. So we have that going for us. :D Not fun either way.
 
Got on the east side and jumped on 64 east. Kind of a mix of rural 4 lane and 2 lane. There is one lane traffic by Ocoee. So beware.
 
There's a couple Brew houses in Hayesville with good food if you're in the area c8795362579d3eeb7e4233914bdbbf32.jpg4cadc25b7eea720ab3af5fda0274174a.jpgb51336cc81f92288a6ef9cb9e71f2bef.jpg6c9145c88f765f939825941dd2cca7c1.jpg9d9343d6963b0d0773713c890a24a4a3.jpg6c67ac431f55f88dae440b72b4f6f27f.jpge8509571a03782ad1ba4f7ff673e254b.jpg2498efcb5beb619a02e1d1b0b3574fb0.jpgd1ac0d05a744496d772d63144ec6ff02.jpg
