Well we left Branson yest and got into Little Rock last nite. We visited with a lady at a rest area desk so it helped us find a spot in Little Rock and what we might want to see. The park is in North Little Rock and it is a gated one. Nothing special, just a lot, but its safe. There is a big bridge right next door that you can walk across to Little Rock. It comes out just beside the Clinton Library. You remember that this is Pres. Clinton's hometown. I did not go in, have no desire to go in any presidential library but the building is quite interesting. It sticks out over the water. Architecturally its pretty interesting.
Today we took a walk, went to see an old mill that was used in the opening scenes of Gone with the Wind and are back home. There is a big trail here for biking, so if the weather would cooperate we would like to do that. In the meantime, you can ride a trolley car for 50cents.
The weather was cool but a front came in and it is to get really cold (below freezing) tonight and the wind came up so its kinda a bear out there. But guess its like this down to the coast so we will take it in stride. I mean it isn't like we haven't been residents of cold weather before.
Before we left Branson we went hiking on some trail in some different places in the woods. I have to say it is beautiful country down here and the cost of living and the homes are cheap cheap cheap. Veterans are so honored here it is just unbelievable. Leroy gets as many thank yous for serving and handshakes as I get comments on my purple hair. Still getting one a day down here but i get some strange looks. One restaurant we went in to i couldn't figure out but all the old people in the place were staring at me and then it hit me, I got a good laugh out of that.
The Twelve Irish Tenors were very very good, a well spent two hours. They put on a nice show and have great voices. When we saw the Pierce Arrow western group, they had the funniest but clean cut comedian that wove his way throughout the show and it was really good,. I had stand up comedians but this really worked and didn't give you too much at once of him.
Today Leroy and I had a big fight. He hit his toleration limit with me. It happens periodically where ever we are. I told you I am a terrible wife and a terrible person to live with. My mother and Donna are probably the only two that can attest to that. Anyhow, he got mad and said we were going home tomorrow. When I reminded him we were home we made up and I apologized and we decided to rethink the whole thing. Kinda funny when i think of it now.
Sydney and Diesel fight over the bed in the front dash while we travel and sit. I guess we need to find another one so we don't have to go thru this. its pretty funny,
Oh, we went to the cat sanctuary. That was very interesting and a very good place to rescue these cats and work towards education so that people quite contributing towards this Nice surroundings and very clean and spacious. I learned a lot and found out I also already knew a lot. It always amazes me how much their mannerisms are so similar to small house cats. So anyhow, that was well worth the few $ it took to get in.
Will be here and probably head out on Thurs. Leroy won't drive on ice or in heavy winds so we will limp along the road playing with the weather as we go. We are always warm and cozy in here tho.
I can't believe you went up in that capsule. It looked really tight. Then the room at the top felt claustrophobic too. The pictures of the cathedral are beautiful. Lots of quilt patterns.
