For those coming SW through Missouri on I-44..........if you take hwy
71/I-49 south near Joplin you will pass through Bentonville Arkansas where
you can visit CHRYSTAL BRIDGES MUSEUM OF AMERICAN ART, a must see for both
the art, architecture, and grounds (free). Camping nearby. Then
continue south on I-49 to Ft Smith and catch I-40 west to Shawnee, AND
AVOID THE TOLL ROAD !

There are some hills on I-49 but nothing our coaches will complain about.
The interstate is not quite complete, but still good double lane highway.
