Scenery

Lot's of farm land and good roads. You cross over where the Sulphur and Red Rivers meet and cross the southern tip of Lake Erling and pass by the Lake Erling Country store

Drive Enjoyment

Lots of quiet country roads, sweeping curves and mostly flat after crossing the Red River until after Gin City. The busiest area after US 59 will be Sprillhill and US 371. After getting off US 59 and onto FM 3129 you may want to stop for gas to ensure that you have enough. There is only three other gas stations until you get into Springhill and only one in Serepta.

Tourism Opportunities

Serepta's claim to fame, beside's Dorothy's Shrimp Po Boy, is that the country singer Trace Adkins was born and raised there. Just south of Dorothy's, in front of the Town Hall is a park with a tribute to him.
