RV with a View

We woke up this morning to a little drizzle and a bit cool, but so much better than back home. We had a pleasant trip to West Memphis, AR with the exception of a lot of road construction. It seem that providing employment for road workers is the full extent of Obama's stimulus. To top it off they really do not look like they need repair. We lost about an hour today due to the road work on I-40.

The very best part of the day arriving at the Tom Sawyer Mississippi River RV Park. This place is fantastic. We are parked in the motorhome section along the riverfront. All the lots are angled and staggered so everyone has a great view of the Mighty Miss. We are in the front row, just a mere 100 feet from the river. The view out our front window could not be better. We can sit in the living room or out on the patio and watch the river barges and other boats as they go up and down the river.

It is still quite warm here and for the first time on our trip we are not seeing any of the Fall colors. The trees here are still full green and have yet to turn. Traveling through the hills of Kentucky and Tennessee with all the trees in full fall color was a true delight. Speaking of the hills, I must say this year not having to go through some of those high mountains with this motorhome was a delight. Now that we are in Arkansas everything is flat again. We still expect to see some hills as we cross Texas but the worst is behind us.
