Are you over the lake or still in Rockwall? If still not to the lake, you can exit and go north until you get to state Highway 66 which you can go west on over the lake.

If you're on the lake, be prepared to exit onto the frontage road when you get to the other side

Just got over the lake. Missed the first exit. Now I get to sit for a while again. Who has a helicopter?
