Maumelle Park, Arkansas - 4,261 Miles

We were sad to leave Toad Suck Park. It is such a pretty place. The campground hosts assured us that Maumelle Park was just as beautiful and he was right. It is a larger park with plenty of camping sites by the river. We cruised the campground and found one, #20, in the corner of the park along the river. Great site. It is not surrounded by trees but with the temperatures in the 40s this morning who cares? The park is on Pinnacle Valley Road and is a COE or US Army Corps of Engineers park. The fee for us Golden Agers is $9 per night for a 30 amp spot. Nice.

I got the tire problem on the CRV solved last night at a Wal-Mart in Conway. Had to replace one tire that had sidewall damage that was causing it to leak. The tire guy told me I could take it to a place that did sidewall patches but to be safe I replaced it.

Now our satellite system is acting up. Ugh-ga-bugga. We can get OTA TV from Little Rock so we are not completely shut out.

We came to Maumelle Park so we could go to the Arkansas State Fair today. We will take off for that after Seven's soap is over. We might stay here for a couple of days. It is a great park.
