Thro' all the tumult and the strife I hear the music ringing; It finds an echo in my soul— How can I keep from singing?

It's about 1000 miles from Darien, Georgia to Abilene, Texas, if they head west through Louisiana.

Sorry, Bonnie - in truth, I know more or less nothing at all about the wild west or cattle trails. But it's already a fun story, and this companion thread is hilarious!

O.k. I had to check...there actually is an iris called "Outlaw Trail" and it's kind of interesting, in a chocolate /violet sort of way.
