Grimsley Mountain in Arkansas

In March we came upon an opportunity to spend some time in Northern Arkansas.  We embarked on this adventure to find our home and this was one of the areas we were thinking of, so we adjusted our plans and headed to Arkansas.

So, we're gone now in Arizona, but I'm finally taking the time to share Grimsley mountain! We loved it, absolutely. We even did some house hunting. It's not the right time for us, though. And ... ticks.  So many ticks.  We were run off by a tiny and really gross bug!

It was interesting, though, to settle for a few weeks, hang my laundry up on a line to dry, relax ... interesting in that we were ready to move when we did. Not because we didn't like it, but because we were ready for a new view. That is one of the best parts of this life. We get to have a new backyard every 2-3 weeks. I love it and am surprised by that!

One of our favorite experiences there was going through a cave. That was fun enough for its own post, so I'll get to that soon!

Mostly we hiked and took long drives.  One drive took us across the river on a fairy and suddenly we were in Missouri! We hadn't realized we were so close. The river was nice and it was a fun experience!

We also went just past Branson, Missouri, to a place that creates mysteries! We had to search through the building for clues to eventually get the combination of a lock. Very interesting!

Arkansas. Not sure if it will stay in the running for our future how, but I'm glad we went!
