Arrived Eureka Springs, Arkansas


We spent a couple of days in Batesville, Arkansas with Mom Baker and our niece, Shelly...who will attend the University of Arkansas in the fall. We also met Shelly's perfect other (Roger), and cheered him on as he played softball one evening. It was a short visit, but we wanted to spend some time with Mom since this was her 80th birthday.

We were able to get the RV air conditioner fixed (now dealing with the generator going out)...and set off for a new destination - Eureka Springs, Arkansas (far north, very near Missouri). This is a side trip on the way to Oklohoma and we are anxious to find out more about this area. The drive was absolutely beautiful.

Can't wait to introduce you to Eureka Springs and the unique glass church! More tomorrow. Enjoy the Batesville photos.

Cheers, Carol and Ken

    Love that Batesville sky......beautiful!

    You got gas (for the RV) in Horse Cave? That's where my friend lives....went to see her that Sunday afternoon after the reunion. I didn't see any horses there either, but I'm sure there are some there...in the Cave.

    Be safe, Happy 4th!
