2 states 2 go

We spent our final night in Florida at the Ocala Elks but since they were having a dance we went to a nearby sports bar to watch the Razorbacks defeat South Carolina ... #7 prevailed over #9. We had no clue that Reid was hanging out with the quarterback after the game. It is hard to know who is the happier of the two. Woo Pig Soouuuiiiieeeeee!

Next stop - Montgomery, Alabama to visit the cousins. We found a great spot at the Gunter Hill Corps of Engineers campground alongside a river just a few miles west of Montgomery. We were again enjoying the fall foliage.


Sunday afternoon was no problem for me to round up some firewood since there were only two other campers..


The next afternoon we left for Mississippi. When we got to Tupelo we stopped for gas and spotted the Elvis Presley Campground on Lake Elvis Presley sign nearby. Leon does like all things Elvis so off we went. It was a little county campground that suited us just fine. Leon watched the bats and we used the remainder of our firewood.


 As the flames died and the wood turned to ashes it all became just another pleasant memory. It is one of the best trips we have taken. We made it to Hot Springs on Tuesday just before the rains came.


You will find us back at the dead end until the mood strikes again!
