Arkadelphia, Arkansas

We moved from Tyler, Texas to Arkadelphia, Arkansas yesterday getting a tidge closer to home. The drive was good, stayed on country roads for the most part and only entering Interstate 30 in Texarkana, Texas - at the border of Texas and Arkansas. We are camped near I30, pretty noisy, but a lovely place. Today we will go get earplugs to block out the traffic. I suppose a person could get used to this, and at this campground there are a number of extended stay folks, but. Earplugs are a must for our stay here. We are watching the weather up north and snow is still in the forecast so we aren't in a hurry to get back. We need to get back by April 19th - Dave is going to Florida on family business and he needs to have me and the cats secure in a campground. We are now considered full-timers, just have to get back to our 'old' place and clean out and store what was there before we left in December. We need to see if full-timing is for us, and if we don't try it to see - we will never know. If things turn sour and we don't want to full-time in an RV, then we will figure out something else. There are so many possibilities that we have learned - renting for a couple of months at a time a park home - these are small modular homes - in campgrounds. Lots of people opt for this style and maybe some day we will to.

While here in Arkadelphia we plan to go to Hot Springs National Park in Hot Springs and also to go to a diamond mine where you mine for diamonds. People we know said that every time they went there, they found diamonds. How cool is that? Take off towards the north in a week or so, then who knows where we will be next. I like this life - very nomadic. We are already thinking about where we will be next winter - either New Mexico (Deming) or Arizona (Tucson).
