Wife was responsible for the first stop and the 3y/o said he was going to poop his pants if we didnāt stop again.

We may have passed each other for sure during neutron shield surveys.
Got some light rain today on SE TN, maybe it will reach RRB to knock down the dust for them.
On the lighter side of show spin offs, first came Beverly Hillbillies, Petticoat Junction, and then Green Acres.

Ok trying to get a group together for a timed departure is like herding cats, especially via online forum. But here goes.
Ideally need to depart from El Ray's Mexican restaurant tomorrow morning at 9AM sharp so we can get back by dark. That means everyone already topped off with fuel , ice, etc. I will be there about 8:30 AM in the morning.
I will be monitoring FRS/GMRS Channel 7 same frequency as all the little handheld radios you get get every where.
Please always make sure the driver of the machine behind you sees which way you are turning, I can only track about 10 machines back with any luck by myself. I will not intentionally leave anyone behind and need everyone else to have the same mindset.
Thre round trip loop will be right at 100 miles, I have taken dozens of Pioneers and Talons and not one has ever run out of gas if they were full when we left. On this route you may only need 4WD in about a 6 mile section, the rest turf mode gets the job done easily. About halfway there we will have a 6 mile lengthy hill climb that has some rock ledges and washouts in 2 sections, these will need your attention in wheel placement, in 40 machines I have brought this way in past 2 weeks only 1 flipped on its side.
I have 2 spare radios that hopefully someone in the middle and the last machine will use if they don't have one already, that way we can stop and get through without leaving people way back or losing anyone. I had 4 machines my last group take a wrong turn , had to stop everyone for an hour, found them in the edge of Brimstone 5 miles the wrong way.
That said everyone had a great time.
Planned route is to go to Eternal Flame, then west and south by mostly trail to Brushy Mountain Pennetentiary, eat & let everyone look around then head back by 5pm stopping at New River Train for pictures etc. and back to exit 141
My cell # is (618) 204-3229 Bob Stovall , much of our route will be no cell service until on mountain tops.
The route is below, Top right is from RRB, bottom left is Brushy Mountain, run loop counterclockwise.
Yes there is a lot of places to make a wrong turn.....

My take is yes, helmets required on the pavement.
I just checked in at the hotel, parked in the dirt lot.
Funny, didn't see any dirt just mud.
