Hey we are leaving the DFW area May 1st about 8:00 pm maybe we will see you on the road. We have made this trip the last 3 years and it is not a bad trip. We switch the driving and it is very easy. We have stopped and the 2nd day is not very good so we prefer to go all the way through. We also used to live in Ft Walton Beach FL so we know that area pretty well. If you are going to stop Crestview FL is a nice place to do it. WE are staying at the Dolphin. Maybe we will see you there. Enjoy the drive it is an easy one. When we leave at night we go through Houston. It is really about the same time any way you go depending on traffic. At night Houston is not bad.
