Vacation time... We took a little mini vacation and drove down to visit some friends who live in Clarksville, Arkansas. He is my husbands best friend from high school and moved down there when he married Penny back in 2001(I think that was the year..I lose track of time lol) We got there on July 4th and that evening, he bbq'd and we enjoyed watching thier little boy(age 4) get excited over the fireworks. I miss having little ones around sometimes. Really looking forward to Caleb getting excited over the holidays. Anyway, on Thursday, Penny had to work, so Karl took us on a backroads tour of the mountains. He took us to this swinging bridge that none of us were brave enough to walk across, but did walk out on.(See the new picture in my profile). Then he took us to this really cool old house. It is literally out in the middle of nowhere. Ya know the old saying "Over the river and thru the woods"? Well, that's where we had to go to get to this house. It is open for touring, with a note on the walls saying please don't steal. It is really neat. Amazing that it has been untouched by graffitti or theives, but I guess it takes to much effort to get there for that kind of riff raff. I took a few pictures there. The top picture is one of me taken at the bottom of the VERY STEEP stairs.

Then we went on to a place Karl called Strawberry Bluff. The bottom picture is one he took of hubby and I standing on the bluff with the gorgeous view behind us. I tried to add a few more pictures, but blogger isn't cooperating....hopefully I can later.

Back to work for me tomorrow. Hopefully for only 3 more weeks, then I start my new job.....keep your fingers crossed for me! It all just depends on how fast the PO(not the local one, but the big one in KC) gets my paperwork processed. It's all a waiting game........so I wait.........lol
