Road Trip

From Memphis to my place, West Plains, Mo. it is 3 hrs on the bike. From my place to Branson is about 2 hrs. Out of Memphis you take 55 north to 63 north. Take that all the way to West Plains over into the edge of Missouri. Should be able to see that. From my place there are a couple of roads to take depending on whether you are wanting the scenic route or the 4 lane. I'll PM you contact info. Leanna is about 1.5 hrs northeast of Memphis so in answer to you question on traveling time, yes you can make the round in a day and be in Branson that night at a decent time.
