As many of you have figured out, I did not complete the blog for last summer's trip. I thought it was about time to catch up since we are already planning this summer and next fall's trips.
Once we left the Hot Springs area, we made a stop at Springhill Park Lock and Dam near Fort Smith, Arkansas.
Unlike our other campsites, this one was not on a lake so the kids couldn't swim. The most memorable thing about this site was the mosquitoes! We couldn't leave the rv without 'eau de deet' to try to keep from getting bit!
Since there was no place to swim, we visited many of the local playgrounds. This one was in one of the local parks. We also found a few geocaches, but once again, the heat and the mosquitoes kept us from staying out too long.
This playground was in the Corps of Engineer Park.
Another day we visited
Janet Huckabee Nature Center. There were a lot of hands on nature activities and walking trails.
The temperatures were rising so we found a place to sit and relax for a while.
We walked a few trails, then Chris and DeAnna found the human spider web!
We had a good time in Fort Smith, but the heat and the mosquitoes were unbearable so we left and continued on our way to Siloam Springs.
