Batesville, Arkansas

Got a late start this morning, stayed up way too late last night talking and getting caught up.

We quickly got into the hills and twisties of Arkansas. Beautiful riding, no traffic. But this is the South and it is June, so it is hot and humid. You would not believe the number of Baptist Churches we passed in the middle of nowhere. Heavy forest everywhere! We stopped at a couple of "scenic lookouts" but you could not see anything due to how high the trees and brush were.

We tossed out our "plan" yesterday and are just riding along the general route, getting as far as we feel. We stopped at about 4:30 this afternoon in Batesville, AR, where the outside temperature was 103. It was time for a beer, except we found ourselves in a dry county. Oh well, maybe tomorrow.

We head into TN tomorrow. See you there!
