Thumbs up Next North Texas Cruise Proposal

Well, I said someone else needed to step up and plan a cruise, but then I started looking at the maps and have come up with a proposal.
How about starting in Rockwall, somewhere near I30 and S. Goliad Street (FM 205) and then head east on FM 276 passing through Quinlan and East Tawakoni , then south on FM 47 through Woolsley, Flats, Clifton and Wills Point, continuing south through Scott and onto FM 198 through Rody and on into Mabank. Lunch in Mabank. Then following FM 198/FM 90 through Payne Springs, Log Cabin, Caney Creek and into Malakoff. Then take FM 31 through Trinidad, Kerens, Powell and into Corsicana. From Corsicana, head northeast on FM 3041 through Pettys Chapel to Roane, connecting to FM 1129 to Montfort, following FM 1129 to FM 85E to FM 2613 north to Styx and Lively. Then on FM 148 west through Grays Prairie, Scurry, Warsaw, Crandall and Terrell. Take FM 205 from just outside Terrell back to where we stared in Rockwall? Thats about 258 miles.

I've also looked at a variation that would take us from Corsicana to Waxahachie and then on to Styx and pick up the above itinerary. That adds about another 50 miles for a total of 310. But it does address John Deans request to visit Waxahachie!

Any comments or ideas, please post them. I'm thinking we need to do this in June. Maybe June 3rd or the 24th. Tulsa is in the 14th - 17th. Any later into the summer and we'll be into some major warm weather.

Is this too much cruising for y'all? Do we need to wait until the fall?
