Recently, due to mental health difficulties, my family and I decided it was time after 8 or 9 years to move back closer to everyone else. My mom has bought a house near Cincinnati, so this will ultimately be a homecoming, but for now, in phase one, my mom, one brother and I drove from Oklahoma City to Loganville, GA where I'm staying temporarily.

Routing: I-40 east to I-55 south to I-269 east to I-22 east to I-65 south to I-20 east, then exit 75 to local streets to the house.

Notes: I-40 construction is not nearly as prevalent in Arkansas as it was the first time I drove that route. Still no evidence of I-240 following either EB I-40 or NB Kickapoo Turnpike. Construction at Douglas Blvd in Midwest City came out pretty good. I don't quite know how we did it hut we avoided ALL of the major cities' rush hours once we got out of OKC. Even Atlanta at 4am wasn't terrible.

Gas prices in general are still well past $3 and approaching $4 in some areas closer to OKC, but not as horrendous as I thought.

No new counties were collected, however I did gain additional I-55 mileage (all Tennessee mileage is clinched) as well as some on I-269.
