Mississippi, Louisiana, and into Arkansas

From Service Corps of Engineer Park our next stop was Lake Lincoln State Park near Wesson, Mississippi. Since it was almost the weekend we stayed through Sunday. While in the area, we did some geocaching and walking--not hiking as it was too hot! There were nice paths throughout the park.
Bob got a kick out of the sign for the 'laundry mat.'We also wondered who had the feast at this site....check out that concrete table!When we left Mississippi we drove east into Louisiana and then north to Arkansas. Once in Arkansas we headed to Chicot County Park near Lake Village. It was a great park on the lake. There were plenty of sites, but many of them had faulty electric hook-ups. We found a site near the water and it had good electricity.The cypress trees look like a good place to kayak, but the water was a little rough while we were there.
Once again, we geocached and did a little walking. Did I mention the heat? Well, it was miserable hot!

We were close to Mississippi River so we crossed into Greenville, MS to do some of our caching. We found a great park just east of Greenville. We walked through the cypress sloughs and had a 'cooler' time.On our return trip, we stopped at Harlow's Casino. We were each given $10 to spend in the casino. I lost mine, but Bob left with $30 in his pocket.

The town of Wesson is home to Copiah/Lincoln Community College. We found several caches along the nature trail at the college.From Chicot County Park we headed to Jacksonville, Arkansas. As we neared Pine Bluff it began to rain and we drove in rain until we were almost to Little Rock AFB. Once we were set up, the clouds let loose and we had more rain than we had seen in a long time. The temperature cooled for that night, but the next day it was hot once again. Did I mention it was miserable hot?

We stayed at Little Rock AFB three nights. It was time to do laundry and stock the cabinets for our stay at Petit Jean State Park over July 4th.

We did walk the nature trail by the rv park every day just to get some exercise.Friday morning we packed the rv and headed for Petit Jean State Park near Morrilton, Arkansas. Bob's parents and sisters were meeting us at the park.
