Around Felsenthal, AR

Even though there's not anything particularly interesting to share, here are a few pictures of where we've spent the last two weeks. This is an area where people come to fish, frog,and hunt (ducks, deer and razorbacks) and there's not a large full time population. Definitely rural living!

Tracks Inn, the local motel made from old rail cars.

One of many hunting camps. This was a nice one. Note the large fans. We saw people in their yards with fans on, a first for me, but I can see how it would help if there was no air conditioning!

My fascination with the cypress trees continues, even when they're not in the water.

The woods, where the razorback live. Scary sounding beasts. A guy at the mill recently killed a 600 pounder, small by some standards!

The crane with the broken boom at the mill. They got it fixed and running while George was there.
Some of the repairmen were staying in the campground where we are.

Trying to stay cool while waiting for the laundry to finish. It was 106 and it sure felt good to get back to AC!

These honeysuckle show up along the road, climbing trees, fences, houses, anything that gets in their path... so pretty.

And the sunsets continue to be wonderful.

George just got back from the mill, where he got his equipment loaded so we are ready to move on!! The plan was to go to a mill near Houston, TX, but in light of the fact that a hurricane/tropical storm was passing through as he was speaking to the contact person today, it was decided to postpone the job until next year. I must admit my feelings were not hurt over it. No more scheduling work down here in the summer. Onward!
