Karen and crew spent the night in Brinkley, AR at the EconoLodge.  The drove for 12 hours, and everyone was wore out, including the dogs.

Update 14 - From Karen - Pee break before leaving EconoLodge. [1] Piper growled at 2 people for us… good piper!  Southern hospitality is the best. I was offered a free water from a stranger in Brinkley.

Update 15 - From Shade - Tennessee![2]

Update 16 - From Karen - [Shade sleeping in the back.] [3]   3rd argument from kids… spilled water lol… lasted 30 secs.

Update 17 - From Shade - Tennesee River[4]

Update 18 - From Karen - First hold up… on I65.  Accident. 3 lanes closed.[5] {Notice that Seth is asleep, but the friction of the seat pulled his eye open.  Karen had to wake him after this photo to make sure he was still alive.}

Update 19 - From Shade - We’re here[6]

Update 20 - From Karen - passed the knob creek exit… lol.

Update 21 - From Shade - We’re in Wylder.

That’s it for the drive updates… they arrived safely shorty after that update, and the remaining updates were Karen bragging about how much of an alpha bitch dog Piper is being.
