You can stay on I-40 and drive over toward Russellville. Over 4 minutes of totality and no back roads.
Yeah I just didn't know if there would be lots of crowds around Russellville. I can't imagine there would be a problem, but then I hear of hotels booked out a year..
Russellville will likely be over run with visitors, it's been talked about as a top destination for the eclipse for over a year

We'll be leaving Branson the morning of the eclipse and was thinking we'd drive south towards Russellville, try to find somewhere to pull off on a country road and see what we see. I do worry about traffic and keeping the gas tank full

Just remember, if you decide to do any driving in the eclipse area the day of, people are stupid. Be prepared for said persons to come to a complete stop in the middle of an interstate highway at any given time. I ain't foolin' folks. People gonna be acting a fool this day.
In the words of Merle Haggard, I think I’ll just stay here and drink, err, make do with being in the 90% eclipse band.
Just in case it’s the ‘End of the World’ I’m going to stay here and guard my stockpile on food, ammo, and hot horny women.
No. Because I want to do that
Ok, thanks. That is sort of what I was afraid of. I became aware of the eclipse about a month ago, and it's in the 'that would be cool to check out with the kids' camp, but not willing to go to as much effort as some others appear to be willing to..
Right now I think I'll do what I was originally thinking and get to ft smith and randomly head SE and see what happens.
No eclipse for me. We will still be in Florida during that event.
Stay off the two lane roads going south out of ft. Smith. They suck on a good day.
