November 11-12 2011 Memphis and Little Rock

Down town Memphis. It was Veterans day so it was pretty deserted. The Mississippi river museum we wanted to see was closed for the season.

police behind bus and the dings

The bus got dinged today outside Little Rock, AR by a guy zipping in front of us to get to his exit.  No one got hurt and the bus did not get to badly dinged

a twisted tree by our campsite in  Memphis and sunset on the Arkansas River by our campsite outside Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a little weird to me, I think of the Arkansas river in Colorado where the headwaters are, not in Arkansas where it heads into the Mississippi
