May 4th - 14th. - "The Trail of Tears" - North Carolina to Oklahoma
Not quite following the traditional path the Cherokee Indians took on their historic "Trail of Tears" trek when forced from their homeland in the North Carolina Mountains and relocated in Oklahoma...but close enough to use the name. This 10 day trip will take Muthuh from the mountains of North Carolina to Oklahoma and back in early May... 2500 miles!
So far I've been in contact with quite a few people from AOL along the way who have been helpful as hell getting me motel and cheap food information. A few notable BBQ joints and plenty of biker bar locations have been routed along the way.
Feel free to keep in touch with Muthuh as he makes his way across country, most nights he should be able to get online and make his replies. Hope you enjoy the next virtual ride!
