Day 1, Saturday--07-21-2012

What we did:

(1) knick-knacks at Fred's (extra dog food so there was enough to feed him while we were gone etc)

(2) ate at Texas BBQ in Atlanta TX

(3) another stop in ARK for gas

(4) checking in. That's about it. During the trip, the new FM transmitter let us play my wife's MP3 collection (on a 16G microSD in a SanDisk Sansa e280v2 RockBox'd) through the car's FM radio around 87.9 MHz.

(5) The GPS appeared to have us go a longer way, looping up off I-630 to I-40W to Russellville before getting on ARK 7 when we could've gotten on ARK 7 immediately around Arkadelphia somewhat earlier, but we did as it said (maybe it was having us avoid twisty-hilly roads that would be slower).
(6) It got us within a mile of the cabin (it was just routed to the town of Jasper itself), a call to the cabin got us there, then we saved the spot as a favorite & we were good to go.
