Well, we left eastern Arkansas and headed to the north western corner on Thursday, the 28th of August. It was a relatively short trip, but it covered some pretty good mountain roads. Lots of tight turns a few good inclines. Some of the towns we went through had populations as small as 110. That was Big Flat. Going through Big Flat was like going back in time about 50 years or more! I noticed that the fire department building didn't seem to be much bigger than a standard size garage! If it was easier to turn around 65 feet and 26,000 pounds of truck and trailer, I would have gone back for pictures! However, I found some online! What a quaint and quiet town!

We saw other nice little towns along the way. We arrived at the KOA campground in Eureka Springs in mid afternoon and got set up.

A couple of hours later, Jami, Ed and Amy were at our RV visiting! They live about 16 miles away in Berryville. Since our arrival here, we have been busy, busy, busy! And, that is why I'm a few days late with this update.
Yesterday, we went to Ed's Mom and Dad's house which is located in the middle of nowhere! They are definitely out in the sticks! If you searched for the definition of "sticks" on Google, it would probably say 'see the Wallace place'!
Dan and Lucy Wallace bought a two room house on the mountain and added and added to it. They have a great place with lots of room and multiple work shops.

Later that night, Amy decided she wanted to spend the night with us. Jami had a bit of trouble dealing with that, but reluctantly agreed to let her go! Amy is a little chatter box and talked the entire 16 miles from her house to our RV! We played, watched TV and finally slept. Well, most of us slept. Amy wasn't so sure about sleeping on the convertible couch in the living room while we were in the bedroom and asked if she could sleep with us. Dodie decided she would sleep with Amy and left Maggie and I in the bedroom. It seems that Amy is a bit of a wiggle worm when she sleeps. The truth is she is a thrasher! So, Dodie didn't sleep too well! This morning, we had French Toast and Bacon for breakfast. After breakfast, I was going to take Amy to the playground just as Jami and Ed arrived. So, the 4 of us went to play and had a great time.
Since this is a holiday weekend, we are laying low and waiting for the crowds to go away, We'll then do our sight seeing. We'll be here for a few weeks, so there will be more posts from Arkansas!
