Arkansas

217 miles today and I find myself just south of the Missouri bootheel at Blytheville Arkansas. I spent the morning exploring Ste Genevieve, the oldest city in Missouri. I then took a slow trip down old US 61 to Sikeston. Apparently they haven't done much to it since the Interstate opened and it was slow going. Tomorrow I should pass Memphis and I will check to see if Elvis is home. Once south of Memphis I plan to get back on US 61 and slow the pace a bit.
