2008 09 28 West Memphis to Hot Springs

Today was another beautiful day weatherwise. Our travels took us from West Memphis in the morning arriving Hot Springs early this afternoon.

The area is lovely and the traffic was no problem. We honestly believe, however, that Arkansas highways are some of the worst ever! They are like an old washboard. We seemed to recollect that same sentiment from our car trips a number of years ago - nothing has really changed.

We are at the Cloud Nine RV Park in Hot Springs and we are pleasantly suprised. We are high atop a hill with a lovely view of the tree covered mountains. What a pity we didn't time our visit better to include the color change that will be happening here soon. The park is well maintained and has nice pull-throughs making set-up a breeze.

Today was Sunday, and of course that means football. I am sure we had every game on the tube today. Football aside, I did manage to scrub the grill.

Dinner was simple - grilled chicken and Ceasar Salad. I managed to polish-off the last of the fruit salad while washing dishes (not because I was hungry - more that it doesn't keep over very well.) Well, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

Tomorrow we're planning to wash the Bus and Car - they could use it. After a few chores are out of the way we plan to take in the National Park, the gardens, the baths - all the things Hot Springs is famous for.

As I've said before, stay tuned.
