Month: March 2018

Our stay last night was along a somewhat unusual river I’ve learned. It called a blackwater river and supports unique flora and fauna, perhaps as evidenced by the previous photo.

“Hard Labor” refers to how the park was built in the 1930s by the CCC. Many state parks have old facilities, but this one was beautifully renovated 2 years ago.

We biked 29 miles round trip on a developing bike path along Arkansas River from Maumelle Park to downtown Little Rock, where we saw the bike police training and had food court lunch from a guy from Ramallah. We saw quite a few people walking and running the trail, some cyclists. Now we’re in holly Springs Mississippi, just having passed the large fedex hq adjoining Memphis

Snowpack near Leadville Colorado is the source of the Arkansas River which flows into the Mississippi
