Thanks for the thoughts/input. As I said, this trip will be a fair-weather trip...if the weather is calling for rain, I'll put it off until another time. I'm planning to do a short overnight on the Natchez Trace near Nashville while visiting my parents. If it rains...I'll just visit more. But, as I plan for my next, and hopefully longer, trip it's a question that was on my mind.
