Arkansas!


Friday morning, we packed up the van and headed east to the home of the Razorbacks. Much to our surprise, the speed limit was 55! We drove a long way at this speed which, was pretty strange to us. After all, it was slowing down our progress! We had more boxes to stamp in. We made our way to Lake Catherine State Park to stamp in Baby Bear's "CHIP" Box. Much to our surprise, Barefootlucy pulled in just behind us. What a nice treat to have a fellow Texas Boxer to walk the trails and find the box. Really nice park with a lake of course (hence the name). The three of us made our way around the lake to the suspension bridge to where the box was. Easy find and nice stamp! After stamping in, Lucy Locket left BFL and I to chat while she hid her box. BFL had other pending obligations, so we parted and I made my way around the trail to find Lucy Locket and her clues for the newly planted box. Another nice stamp add to my collection.
One purpose of this trip was to attend The Arkansas Gathering put together by Shiloh. We checked our hotel, ate dinner and updated our finds. I am excited to meet some new boxers here in Arkansas. This is going to be a casual gathering and I can't wait to see the stamps I will get!
