We drove on Tuesday, leaving Kansas behind and cutting through a bit of Missouri. Still lots of trees..and blue skies...the temperatures are climbing, hitting 90!
As we headed into Arkansas from Missouri, we drove into the Ozark forests and "mountains". (the highest point in Arkansas is 2753 ft) But the road was a little like a roller coaster...up and up..down and down...lots of curves.
After the plains of Nebraska and Kansas, these rock walls were interesting to us, so we took some pictures.
We ended up outside a little town called Jasper. Our park is called Dogwood Springs Campground. It is a small family run park, with all the sites carved out of the hills to get level spots. Everything around here is on hillsides--homes, farms, towns, etc. It's getting hot and sticky for us Northwesterners, so we were glad to find a park with a pool. Harris took this picture after we spent the afternoon there. (We're not in there anymore). Can you spot Howie through the trees?
Wednesday was a day to stay and relax, and not drive anywhere!
Tomorrow we head into Tennessee to get closer to our holding point so we can make a last mad dash when the call comes that the baby has arrived. We'll definitely have to come back here and spend more time exploring.
Total miles driven = 313
