It's been a minute or two since we walked at the lake. It's time. Here in Texas, autumn is the best weather for walking and we really need to start implementing it more into our lives. Today, coffee and scones in hand, we are at the water's edge, just moseying. If you look REALLY close, you will see that every single post is occupied with the exception of a short one.
Morning on the deck, overlooking the chickens and goats. I want to move out of the city so badly. I keep telling myself, someday, someday. It's our last day out and about and we are taking our time departing this morning. Mister has been in the kitchen making some biscuits and coffee which is now being served out on the deck. Yes, I could do this daily. Would he want to? Well, that's a whole other question. For the moment though, everyone is content.
It's another day in Arkansas. We are in Ozark and there is not a coffee shop to be found. A quick drive around the downtown area discovers this old jail down on the Arkansas River. As I peek through the trees beside the building, I can see the Arkansas River Bridge in the background. Yep, we're going over it as Paris appears to be the next place that has coffee.
Good Morning once again! We are sad to be leaving Eureka Springs, but also excited for what this day will bring. It's chilly today and I'm route planning in my pj's coat and shoes. Doesn't that make sense to everyone?? Time to dress, pack, and have one last look around the place. We definitely wish to return. Perhaps in a way people would least expect.
During another drive through town last night, we spotted another coffee shop and are going to give it a try this morning. Luckily, we found a parking spot right on the street and are able to peek around a bit.
Is it still the 20th? This has been such a fun day and it just keeps getting better and better. Just look at our view. Who would not be at peace here? This is another one of those rare "scenic turnouts."
This is the day that just keeps on going and we are loving it. After leaving Quigley's Castle, we are still en route to the War Eagle Mill. When we arrive, the War Eagle Bridge catches our attention and I am drawn in instantly. Up on the bridge I go. It's not really a pedestrian bridge, so I need to be aware if a vehicle is approaching.
This is the second post for today. The reason? Well, it is picture laden!!! Too many for just one post if I added them all in together. This one stop alone provided over 25 pictures AFTER I threw a bunch out.
We are on our way to War Eagle Mill and I spot a sign that says, "Quigley's Castle." I had read about this before hand, but hadn't planned on the stop. I would, however, love to just get a picture of the outside. I mean -- it's a castle in Arkansas, right?
We take the exit and arrive only to discover that you cannot see anything beyond the line of trees out front. Drat. The attendant comes to the gate and Mister just shrugs and pay the fee. In we go.
