What if we take 39 on over to Lexington and Purcell and come back on
77? What would that add?

With the wind, it may well be that the ride as planned is 4 hours.
But if there are a few of us out, we may not quite get to that mark.
Besides, I'd rather come in on 77 or another of the back roads than go
back over the I-35 bridge after heading out that way.

What's everyone think?
