And we are off on another adventure. This is the fifth sojourn of the year and we have one more to go after this one. We are headed to Chicago for the Downers Grove North High School Class of 1968 reunion next weekend. We already did the Hillsboro High School Class of 1968 reunion. Of course there are lots of things we are going to do besides the reunion. Today we set out from Houston intending to end up in Little Rock for the night. On the way we passed by Hot Springs which was a notable spa area for many years. It is a national park. We got there late in the day and watched a couple movies about it then drove up the mountain to have a panoramic look. Wikipedia has a good article about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Springs_National_Park Ginny had to go see the only visible hot spring remaining and found out that it looked like, you guessed it, steamy hot water coming out of the ground. We went on to Little Rock, stopping at WalMart to pick up some salads for dinner. One day down and 34 to go. Life is good. |
