Leaving the Natchez Trace

Waking to heavy rain in Tupelo, we decide to exit the Natchez Trace, and skip Elvis' birthplace (dam).  We waited for the rain to subside, and the got started in 100% humidity (very nice!).  The Harley throttle has been shutting down, but thankfully HD man was able to fix it.  The rest of the trip was hot, humid and kinda boring.  We pulled into Branson Mo., a little too late to attend a show.  We did however get a very tough steak for dinner.  The motel room was very cheap, but had the nice smell of cat pee.  Oh well!
