Lake Dardanelle State Park, Russellville, Arkansas – 16 May 18

It was beautiful waking up to the Mississippi River this morning, very peaceful.

Today we are getting off the Interstate 40 and on to a smaller road, Highway 64.

We passed beautiful farms, farmhouses and small towns.

A stop in Wynne for a Walmart stock and some craft activities for the boys and then back on the road.

We passed through the small towns of Earle (Home of the Bulldogs), Levesque, Fair Oaks, McCrory (Civil War Trail), Conway, Patterson (Pop. 452), Augusta and Bald Knob, where we stopped in a shop carpark to have lunch in the motorhome.

Onto the 67 South, 64 West and then back onto the Interstate 40.

Our destination today is Lake Dardanelle State Park in Russellville, Arkansas and we have a spot right on the river again, beautiful.

Not long after we returned from a lovely walk around the park, the skies grew dark…thunder, lightning and a storm was on its way.

We had a nice chat with a fellow lady camper and she advised that there could be hail so we scuttled off to the motorhome, packed up the awning and spent the evening inside.
