Sunday was planned as a driving day and we traveled from Nashville TN to Little Rock AK. The itinerary called for us to stop for the night in a small 10 site RV Park about 60 miles East of Little Rock, but it was full with construction workers. There is a large scale renovation of I-40 taking place in the area. We found a Corp of Engineers (our favorite type of camp so far) campground on the Arkansas River a Little Northwest of Little Rock. It’s a gem of a place with a strange name, Frog Suck Recreation Area.
We’ve had a situation arise that has changed our plans for Monday; The Crystal Bridges Art Museum in Bentonville is closed on Tuesdays. We are going to cut the Clinton Library from the schedule and run up to Bentonville to see the Wal-mart Art Museum. If we don’t do that we will be in Arkansas until Thursday and we plan on being close to Los Alamos NM by then.
Plan B went well today, we arrived at a commercial campground (Creeks Golf and RV Resort) around noon, set up, took care of the dogs, then left them in the motorhome while we drove the jeep six miles to the art museum.
The museum is a first class operation, very innovative buildings, beautiful grounds, and of course the art. Most of the art is oil on canvas painting done by early American artists. I’m not even going to begin to think that I can critique art, so you’ll have to visit yourself. they won't let me put a link on this blog but just google Crystal Bridges for more info.
