Take 80 (old US 40) out to the west it follows the Oregon trail just watch for signs to turn off to see the sites. My family came out in 1843 on the first wagon train to make it all the way to Oregon. It's a little better now. Walt [Reply]  [No Email]

Mostly 2 lane,but 4 lane in places. I've been on all of it from Grayling Michigan to Chattanooga Tennessee. One of these years,I'm gonna travel the rest of it. Two lane and rural through Ohio,although Cincinatti is a ROYAL PAIN. Beautiful scenery through Ky and Tn. [Reply]  [No Email]

Also Cincinnati is a fun town if you want to spend some time there [Reply]  [No Email]

You can take 127 down as far as Hamilton and take local streets over to 27 and get on 75 if you want to go on down farther. Crossville,geez,you're right in the heart of it. The Valley of the Three Forks to the north of you is absolute Heaven on earth,then to your south,down through Pikeville,Dunlap and up on Signal Mountain,second only to what's north of you.
