Wedding Trip - Day 1

[I was asked to be a swordsman at Barney's wedding in Missouri: he met his future bride during the wedding we went to in JUN 1997 and wanted to re-create the entire event - Matt (was also a swordsman) agreed to drive me (in his truck) - left from Meridian pretty early - used US-45 to get to US-78 and then drove west to Memphis - crossed the Mississippi River into Arkansas and then got on I-55 - got lunch and gas in Blytheville (1215L) and then continued on to St. Louis - I-44 west to MO-109 and MO-100 - staying at Hunt Club - met up with several other folks, most from my old squadron - stayed up late]
