Day 60.

Left at 5am and before the boys were awake we had arrived in Cabot Arkansas, just outside Little Rock.

We had a waffle house breakfast and showered in the car park of a supermarket after Pete and Dylan had topped up on groceries, At 10am we arrived at Jim and Honey-Sues house, a couple that we met in LA.

We were so grateful to sit on sofas and been cooked for and to use the washing machine etc. Dylan really enjoyed an intense dose of televison,  and Solomon lots of cuddles.

We went to get some strawberries from the pick ur own but it was closed so decided to get some wine. We had to cross the county line as the county we were in was a dry one. We passed countless churches as now in the thick of the Bible Belt but alas the liquor stores were also closed. We had a lovley evening chatting before sleeping inthe RV on their front driveway.

 Day 61.

Woke up later than expected feeling really well rested. Jim cooked us breakfast and then we said our goodbyes. There were tornado warnings on the television but the area at risk is unavoidable as so vast so we were advised to carry on and just check on the reports.

We had a good run up to Buffalo River National Park and watched a great film on the area in the vistors centre before moving into our spot for the night in the 12 dollar campsite. We went down to the river at Tyler Bend and swam in the slow flowing pools.

Pete spotted a creature on the cliff face which later caused much controversy amongst the rangers as it looked like a beaver (or indeed a baby bear!) but turned out to be a ground-hog or woodchuck. We had a nice bonfire and were visited by risky the racoon and about 5 other friends.
