August 13-14: Missouri to Arkansas

We stayed in Pontiac Park on the Missouri/Arkansas border for a couple of nights before heading to our second home, Mountain View, Arkansas.  We had a really nice site up on the hill and by itself.  Another plus is that it has electricity and water.  Not all sites had water.

Home again in Mountain View.  Fred and Kathy (yellow and pink shirts in the background) came to visit for a few days.  That's Galen playing his washtub bass in the foreground.  After six weeks of moving around quite a lot, we are happy to be settled again until the first of November.

Serenity Bakery

Mary and I went to Leslie to the Serenity Bakery where I learned some very interesting info about why sourdough bread is so much better for you. Bought a couple of loaves and went home inspired to start my own starter and bake my own sourdough bread like I used to do about 30 years ago.

Mary and I had lunch at the other Serenity establishment outside of town: Vegetable chowder, sourdough bread, and an almond croissant fresh out of the oven.

Perfect Weather

Weather today is gorgeous!

Galen is volunteering with clean up at the Ozark Folk Center which opens this weekend. Big festival downtown this weekend too.

I cleaned all morning and this afternoon dropped off two travel bugs and a geocoin. Here is a photo of the geocoin taken at the yummy Upper Crust Bakery in Austin. The instructions said the geocoin likes to eat in out of the way places so first we took it to the bakery and I just left it near the Skillet Restaurant. It should be happy now.

Little Henry was better yesterday but not doing great yet so we are still worried about him.
