    Mark's place - I figure we can stay the first night here. It's only 243 miles from Talihina, but would allow us to hook up with Mark and do some planning. Alternately, we could go on to the Memphis area and camp. Mike indicated an interest in seeing some sites around Memphis.

  • Marion

    at 537km
  • Entering Tennessee

  • Memphis

    at 555km
  • Mike indicated an interest in seeing some sites around Memphis. There's the Memphis-Graceland RV Park at the end of Lonely Street behind the Heartbreak Hotel (no kiddin'!) where my family and I stayed on a road trip a few years ago. Not a bad place, but in town and close to Graceland. Memphis is 345 miles from Talihina, which is doable in one day if we don't piddle too long at Mark's place.

  • Lots of campgrounds in Dayton. This is about 410 miles from Memphis, and may be a better place to camp if we can make the miles.
