Day 1 {Sat}, 07-12-2025

START

We left Fri around 8:40 pm intending to get a good headstart on the journey, but I koncked out after only an hour, so we stayed in "Budget Inn" in Jefferson. It absolutely lived up to its name, it smelled of urine and was hot upon arrival, but I was very tired and we went with it.

My wife, driving her own car (so the kids could have one for going to Silver Dollar City), stopped at the Natural Bridge in Clinton. I never made it, but I posted some of her shots here (low-grade phone photos, Moto G Power 2024). We arrived around 2 pm on Saturday, and went to Harp's to get groceries. Kevin arrived shortly after. We visited Hwy 65 Bear Creek (from Gez Rogers, 35.93953,-92.7144) I got some good photos from there, but the water (at least where I was at) was too shallow for my liking. We also quickly went to Grinder's Ferry (35.98493,-92.74401) for a bit.
