Arkansas Fall Colors Drive 11/10/2007 anyone ?
Here is the thread from the North Texas forum
https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=538231
Looks like fun. I actually googled the map. Says a 3 hour trip, 184 Miles from Shreveport.
Directions (I used starting address from my parents house)
DIRECTIONS FROM SHREVEPORT, CLICK ME
I quoted Dave's (Temming) post.
Give me some feedback. I'm thinking about attending. If I go, I MIGHT make a weekend trip out of it, but we'll see.

If some of you would be interested in joining me on this drive let me know. Assuming the weather looks good, I am planning to leave relatively early on Saturday morning, November 10th. Eat lunch in Mena, Arkansas and then cruise the 54 mile scenic drive - fall colors should be at or around peak. After the drive and picture taking, I will be heading back to Dallas as I need to be back around 6:00 pm. Overall, mileage will be a little over 500 for the day. Some of you may want to making this into a two day trip so that you can do the scenic drive both directions, hike and find some other fun roads.
General details for this drive follow:
When: Saturday, Nov. 10th
8:00am (sharp): Leave from West Village Starbucks (Hwy 75 (West side) & Lemmon Ave)
11:30am: Lunch in Mena
12:30pm-2:30pm: Scenic Drive and Picture Taking
2:30pm-6:00pm: Drive Back to Dallas
Take Care,

We go camping/ATV riding up in Mena. It's really nice up in the mountains and good to just get away from it all. We have only driven my truck up there and it takes us about 3hrs. The roads are very winding and I always thought how fun they would be in a sports car. I would love to go but I'm plannig a trip to NC around that time.
