Our plans for a drive Saturday have changed. We will now be traveling to Ft. Smith and the U.S. Marshal’s Museum instead of Oark.
Arrive at the Holiday Inn convention center parking lot at the corner of 412 and 48th St. in Springdale WITH A FULL TANK OF GAS at 9:45 am for a 10:00 am departure.
The chance for some rain at this moment is 30% to 40%. If you are worried about driving your British car in the rain, just bring your daily driver. I may be leading in my White F-150.
Here are turn-by-turn directions to our first stop in Ft. Smith at the Bricktown Brewery for lunch.
The Museum is only about six blocks away from the Brewery. After touring the Museum, we will reverse course back home. If you prefer, you can just take I-40 & I-49 back home.
This should be a fun and interesting trip that we should all enjoy and have a good time together. This rout is designed so that we don’t have to drive on the Interstate highways. We will be going Standard highway speeds (60 – 70 MPH). I anticipate two hours to Ft. Smith an hour and a half for lunch, two hours at the Museum and two hours driving back home arriving about 5:30 ish. If you are planning to attend, please call or text me and let me know so I can call the restaurant and give them a heads up.
