    Title says it all. After dealing with Houston for the past 2 days, I want no part of running through there tomorrow with a placarded tanker. Have to be able to run it in 9.5 to 10 hours. Any suggestions?

    The 99 loop that skirts Houston's north would be my choice.

    I just discovered that Arkansas has it's own Nashville AND Murfreesboro. That just isn't right

    Right outside Murfreesboro is the only diamond mine in the USA. Crater of Diamonds State Park. Lot of high dollar diamonds have been found there. Not by me though. I'm too old to be getting down on my knees sifting through that stuff. Takes 2 or 3 people to get me back on my feet again

    But if you did find something sifting around, it sure would be worth it.
