The Ouachitas and the Ozarks

Our final nights before heading back towards Idaho were spent in a cabin at Iron Mountain. 

Staying in a cabin in western Arkansas comes with plenty of perks...
Such as meeting one of the local residents.

We took one last ride along the Talimena Scenic Drive. 
Some of the scenery from the many viewpoints along the way...

On Thursday July 11, precisely one month after our journey began, we packed up and started towards home. We took another scenic route, this time through the Ozark-St. Francis National Forest. If you find yourself in Northwestern Arkansas, I highly recommend traveling State Hwy 23 through this gem.

               Angela definitely approves.

We made our way to Joplin Missouri that evening where we experienced a surprise thunderstorm (see Stormy Weather).

Just a few more blog posts to go... Hope you all are staying cool...

Grace and Peace...
Arnold and Angela.
