We have been busy and out of wifi range for the past few days so we are past due to post an update on our current trip.

To begin, we are spending the night in a rest area on I-30 just west of Malvern, AR: Social Hill Rest Area. It's nice and new and easy off the highway and back on in the morning. Second, we are headed home early because Mike has broken a metatarsal on the outside of his right foot. IT does not appear to be a serious injury or likely to need surgery, but we need to get back home and let an Orthopedist care for it. It is painful and no fun, but he should be fine in a month or two. So our plans get to change once again. And Third:

 Mike pushing a bear on a swing - before we knew he had broken his foot and simply thought it was sprained.

Flowers - at the city square of Fayetteville 

 We had no idea what this was about. But it was on a balcony across from the square.

 Several photos of Throncown Chapel in Eureka Springs. It is a beautiful place in a beautiful setting of flagstone and hardwood trees in the Ozarks. It was designed by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright named E. Fay Jones and is one of the most lovely places Ever!
