Advice needed on route from Las Vegas to New Orleans..?
I searched online for a good route and was given : Vegas - Flagstaff - Albuquerque - Amarillo - Wichita Falls - Dallas - Shreveport - New Orleans. I've gotten route advice by computer before and have sometimes gotten routes that looked good on paper, but in reality took me on logging roads or along roads that had very low speed limits. Anyone out there travelled this route? Where would be a good halfway point to spend the night? Thanks!

Answer 1 :
{EDIT} US 95 South to US 93 South multiplex with I-40 East back to US 93 South to I-10 due East. I-10 has no mountains to contend with. One poster suggested El Paso, TX as an overnight stop, which sounds OK and the second overnight stop can be Houston, TX. The trip is better made in 3 days rather than 2.
Answer 2 :
This works and I have driven it . Just make sure to leave LAS at 6:00AM so you miss PHX rush hour traffic US 93 So>I-40E >US93 So> US 60 E [ get gas in Wickenberg]> SR 74 E aka Carefree Hwy its at a flashing yellow w/ a turning lane > I -17 So then go two or three quick exits to Loop 101 E Scottsdale / /Tempe/ Chandler > Loop 202 W 3 exits to I-10 E and take that all the way to N.O. For me I'd go for El Paso as my halfway point . It 's not so much that it actually half way it's more that once you leave EP heading east there's a lot of very empty Texas real estate until you reach the suburbs of San Antonio Allow 2 days
Answer 3 :
Take I-40E to Oklahoma City, I-35S to Dallas, I-20E to Shreveport, I-49S to Lafayette, and I-10E to New Orleans, The route suggestion that you go through Wichita Falls and NW Texas puts you on secondary roads with lots of towns, stops, and speed traps. Another answer suggests watching the time so you avoid trying to transit urban areas at rush hour - it is a good suggestion

About What can I do to not be so sad and depressed this afternoon
What can I do to not be so sad and depressed this afternoon?
I woke up at 6 o'clock this morning and I went to work at 7 this morning. It was over with at 3 this afternoon. I came home sat down and realized that for 5 years I have lived in this town and I can't seem to find any one that I have things in common with. Except my husband and we have a very happy relationship. But I am a hermit. I stay at home a lot by my self a whole lot. I can't stand working in public places like stores and I have only had one job for 2 years and have kept it and still have it. I didn't finish high school because I wanted to travel with my father who just passed away a year ago with cancer. I miss him and pretend to have coffee with him in the mornings and afternoons. I still miss him and pretend he is here all of the time with me to help me and guide me in life. His death was screwed up and he didn't have a funeral or a burial and his ex wife which he almost hated very much or disliked has his ashes from which I told them to embalm him and then I never called them back and then they just burnt him. I didn't have a way or the money to wichita Ks to help give him a proper burial. Well on with that story heres the next part which is the first part to my begenning of my 5 year journey of being alone. My father and I were traveling from Wichita Ks to northeast Texas and we broke down in a small Town in Oklahoma. I stayed and met a wonderful handsom man who is now my husband. We have no children I am a little mentally disabled but not on a check. I don't drive so I let other people drive for me. I am not a complete idiot or anything just a small hermit who has a husband who has friends that come over and they are my friends too but they just do not come over when I am here by my self because I am a female and all of his 2 friends or whatever are guys. We do get together and play video games all of the time everyday and stuff like that you know but I don't seem to have any friends at all really just my self. I have a job,husband, dead father, and this computer screen and my television but I am so depressed and anxiety filled I do not know what to do. I try to practice natural healing it helps. I don't want pills just a real true friend who will stay by my side through thick and thin. But it is very hard to find. I am married and love my husband very much. But I don't know how to make friends that are weird like me. Are there any hints or information that any one could give me cause if I have no friends with in a few months I feel like I will break down. If some one out there is reading this know that I mean every word of this and am writing with a voice as if I am talking to you. I need a friend not just some one to hang out with and use me for every thing I have in my house but some one to go places with , all of that stuff. Help.

Answer 1 :
Honey, you are okay. From the way you wrote that question I can gather that you are extremely frazzled at the moment. Deep breaths are heaven for problems like that. I don't know how to get you friends because I don't know the people that live near you, but friends will come when they come. If you don't get out much your best bet is to talk to people when you go grocery shopping (my Mum does it all the time :). And if you want someone to be there for you through thick and thin, that's what your husband is for! He will be your strongest support. The absolute best thing you can do, though, is to be absolutely at peace with yourself. Most of the time a large chunk of our problems come when we are not happy with who we are as people. If you can be happy with who you are, it won't matter so much that a lot of things are going wrong for you because you are going right for you. Hope this helps :).

Answer 1 :
if you don't learn to do your own algebra homework you will end up very limited in your employment as an adult. You will have to settle for journalism, politics, or learn to say "would you like to Biggie Size that?". If I did this one for you, who will you turn to next time, or when you are 25
Answer 2 :
Consider how many miles will a train go in 3 hours at 55 miles per hour? Consider how many miles will a train go in 3 hours at 70 miles per hour? Also consider that the two trains are going in opposite directions. So the number you are looking for is the sum of the distances traveled by each train in 3 hours

About How can I fly from Kansas to Fort Lauderdale, FL with the least stops...prefer NONE
How can I fly from Kansas to Fort Lauderdale, FL with the least stops...prefer NONE.?
I am trying to find flights from Kansas City, MO or Wichita, KS to Fort Lauderdale, FL and all of them seem to have at least 1 stop. I would rather have a NONSTOP flight and drive to a different airport to fly out or drive from another close by city in Florida than to have the flight stop. Can anyone help? I have traveled very little.

Southwest appears to have a nonstop flight between MCI and FLL. To see that flight you might need to go to the Southwest website as their flights might not be listed on some travel sites

There's nothing between Denver and Wichita.
Answer 2 :
Skip the interstates and route it this way Pop this into mapquest et al Las Vegas> Mount Carmel Junction UT > Escalante UT > Torrey UT > Hanksville UT > Moab UT Stop I just sent you thru Zion , Bryce, Capitol Reef and Arches NP So you will need one of these which you can buy when you get to Zion http://www.nps.gov/fees_passes.htm Fill up in Hurricane and Moab UT Since Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain NP is closed until 5/27 there's no point in sending you across I-70 Better idea use US 50 across CO starting in Grand Jct CO Use the scenic SR 128 out of Moab to connect to I-70 EB Use mapuest et al and enter Grand Jucntion CO > Witchita KS >options :Shotest route http://www.mesalek.com/colo/us50.html Leave CO and it's flat all the way to Wichita
Answer 3 :
You should or should have taken 95 to Laughlin, then 163/68 over to Kingman AZ where you catch I-40 Take I-40 to Tucumcari NM then catch 54 out of Tucumcari to Wichita. 54 is a nice Hwy. This is a much quicker, and better route. I drive to Las Vegas from KC once or twice a year and have went both ways. There is no comparison. I only made the "mistake" of taking the I-70 route once. Las Vegas to Laughlin = 1hr 33min / 97 miles Laughlin to Tucumcari = 9hr 35min / 675 miles Tucumcari to Wichita = 6hr 56min / 418 miles
