I am 80 miles northeast of Dallas and I will go to Beaumont on 69, I am not sure about the other two you mentioned, but 69 is a good road but there are a lot of small towns and stops. But it has been an easy road to travel. But I pretty sure I won't have the huge traffic like I would if I went thru Houston. Pam Subject: Re: Routes to Nationals Please post replies to the list.....I am also questioning which way to take. I-35 takes me 100 miles out of my way but I'm leary of those "backroads". :o) Cindy md76c@xxxxxxx wrote: We will be leaving next weekend with our truck and 36' 5th wheel. We can take the obvious route of I-35 through Oklahoma City, ?Dallas and I-45 to Houston and on to Beaumont. Mapquest gives me an alternate route that takes me to Tulsa from KC and down thru E. Texas on US 71 , 59 & 69.? If anyone has experiance with either route, your input would be appreciated.
