On the road again!

We were suppose to resume Jeremy's ride last Tuesday, September 2nd, but felt we had better wait to see what hurricane Gustav did. Now we have Hanna getting ready to hit the east coast tomorrow and who knows where Ike and Josephine will end up. This may turn out to be a bad decision but we are heading to Texas to resume the ride Saturday morning, September 6th. This may be a decision we regret due to the fact we have no idea what old Ike will do in the next week or so. Our route for the final 1,200 miles or so will be:

September 6th Depart Huntington, Indiana to Silsbee, Texas
Sept 7th Day 1 (24) Silsbee, TX DeRidder, LA
Sept 8th Day 2 (25) DeRidder, LA` Mamou, LA
Sept 9th Day 3 (26) Mamou, LA Simmsport, LA
Sept 10th Day 4 (27) Simmsport, LA St. Francisville, LA
Sept 11th Day 5 (28) St. Francisville, LA Frankinton, LA
Sept 12th Day 6 (29) Frankinton, LA Poplarville , MS
Sept 13th Day 7 (30) Poplarville, MS Vancleave, MS
Sept 14th Day 8 (31) Vanclearve, MS Daphne, AL
Sept 15th Day 9 (32) Daphne, AL Pensacola, FL
Sept 16th Day 10 (33) Pensacola, FL Crestview, FL
Sept 17th Day 11 (34) Crestview, FL Marianna, FL
Sept 18th Day 12 (35) Mariana, FL Midway, FL
Sept 19th Day 13 (36) Midway, FL Madison, FL
Sept 20th Day 14 (37) Madison, FL High Springs, FL
Sept 21st Day 15 (38) High Springs, FL Palatka, FL
Sept 22nd Day 16 (39) Palatka, FL St. Augustine
Sept 23rd Depart St. Augustine, Florida to Huntington, Indiana

We most likely will not get a full day of riding on Sunday as the drive to Silsbee, Texas may take a little longer than one full day of driving. Also, I do believe we will complete the final leg of this ride in 14 days, but planned the ride for 16 days just in case we have some challenging weather.
