Little Rock Doubletree Hotel

I left OKC with sun and cloud and 44 F. But as miles of farmfields and trees passed, the clouds thickened up and I wondered when the thermometer would hit 50. It did in spite of the persistent cloud cover, about an hour outside of Little Rock. But, hey, it did not rain.<br>Saw more of the city than ...

... for a job and, once I get one, to move out.<br><br>My trip was great, and I'm glad I went. I plan on heading out again on a similar journey at some point, but I don't know when. I wish I could have traveled more, especially in the western United States, but it was either come home and get a job or work on the road, so I chose home and job. I know some people take jobs on the road, work for a few weeks and keep traveling ...

Ok I have to do a better job of writing in this blog every night as I am forgetting what has happened and what we have eaten ( for those of you that are foodies.) Ok so right now we are sitting poolside inthe Best Western Amarillo Inn it is 8.45 and we are waiting for our pizza and pasta delivery. Debbie is on her laptop, me on mine and the girls playing so nice in the pool together. Ok so Little Rock was great. We stayed ...

Ok..so after a unfound 126 Exit and many phone calls, all of our group (with exception of Whimpy's car...we temporarily lost her but she is stoped a few exits away!) stopped at a Wendy's for lunch. The trip has been pretty uneventful so far. Thnakfully no break downs or any big problems. We are almost done eating and then will head back on the road we are a little over a thrid of the way there!! And trust me all of the girls are sooooooo excited, and the coaches are pumped ...

After a full day of packing and cleaning the house on Saturday, we woke<br>up Sunday morning ready to go. We had a few last minute things to take<br>care of, so we left a little later than we had planned - around 8:45<br>a.m. Google Maps and the GPS had us taking 316 to I-20 in Atlanta, so<br>we followed it. There was very little traffic on a Sunday morning. From<br>Atlanta, we headed west on I-20 into Birmingham, Alabama. In<br ...

... this morning. While the guys were out golfing, I tried one more time to get some photos of the hummingbirds, this time I took them from in the sun-room looking out. There are a couple of good shots, but not as clear as when you are not taking them trough a window. Anne and I went to one of her pet-sitting jobs then out to lunch. Later in the afternoon, we drove her to the Botanical Gardens where she was attending her Master Gardener ...

... our last few stops being, Casa de Tim and Jen Lamb (Aspen), Casa de Papa Bear Lamb (Little Rock) and Casa de Mama Lamb (Asheville). She has been holding up remarkably well!! It was nice to leave the snowy Rockies and finally see flowers once again. The daffodils have sprung and temps in Arkansas were in the seventies, a nice respite from the -4 degrees we experienced in Jackson Hole. Papa Bear ...

... my passbook stamp, and leave by noon. But no. I'm way behind. Little Rock, I thought I'd tour the capitol yesterday, but no, the rain, the blasted rain, the dark, the weary feeling that comes down, you need to stop and rest. I'm rested now. Why do I always plan too much? Make a note, a travel note, don't plan a trip for wintertime, you get short shrift of light. Sightsee at night? No good. You need the day. Note posted, in my brain. Should I eat ...
