Sept 22 Petit Jean State Park


We arrived here wednesday, weather was AWESOME! The park is pretty full with folks that are here for the Antique Auto Swap at the Pate Auto Museum.

Enjoyed Wed afternoon, Thursday was a rainy day and not to good to be outside although we ventured out to check the swap meet out and the auto museum.

We're leaving today to move on to Little Rock today. We will likely spend a afternoon at the Clinton Library and do some biking.

Little Rock is a fun place for a few days. An of course we are going to take in another Apple class to learn now about our Mac.

Sept. 18, Mount Magazine State Park, AR

We pulled into the park yesterday and were greated by 3 deer grazing out beside the road at 2:00 PM in the afternoon. This is the second time we have visited this park and we love it. It is located about 70 miles South East of Ft Smith, AR. This is a small park that only has about 14 camping sites. After having been in rain for the last 3 days, we had a cloudy, overcast and dreary afternoon here as well. It then proceeded to rain very heavily all evening and night. We were thankful were on a hill to avoid flooding because the rain was so heavy. We are on the highest point in AR and the views are wonderful here.

Sept 15 Van Buren Ar

We traveled from Oklahoma City toVan Buren after having the leak in our ice maker fixed. Home maintenance on the road, UGH!

Van Buren has a very cool historic downtown as well as a all new area of town with all the city conveniences.

We will stay here until Sunday when we travel to Mount Magazine a very cool State park where we plan to stay a couple days before maybe moving to Petit Jean State park.

As soon as we have some cool pics we'll post them, however it might be a couple days since it is raining today and cool. I think the hot weather is now all gone for a while with this last cold front that moved thru

Sept 7 Oklahoma City

Well we've made it finally across the Texas state line. We are taking in some sites in Oklahoma City. This of course included a trip to the city Zoo and other land marks such as the Oklahoma City National
Memorial Alfred Murrah Memorial

We will stay here about 6 days to take in some apple classes to learn more about these new apple products














Now what about traveling like this?? Tow your normal towing vehicle, ok so it is a 1962 Jaguar since you have to have a car to drive right?

Sept 2 - Juniper Point (a corp park)

We managed to travel a few miles up the road still in Texas.

The corp park had several cancellations that allowed us to get some pretty awesome sites along the lakeside. As it turns out the lake is 6 or so feet low actually giving us a beach front site.

1st day was pretty awesome, 2nd day it was so windy, 3rd day was again awesome. It was like a change of seasons from the horrid heat to a nice cool 80's.

I'm going to insert a few pictures for you to enjoy.
 Cheri and Pat came to celebrate Labor day with us.
 From our camp site we could see the lake and bridge. At night when a truck would cross the bridge the echo sounded like a train on a track
Back of our camp. As you can see a windy day!

and never far from a good meal! Catfish seems to be the most common meal, can you imagine that??
