So, on the return trip home from HS Village, I decided that we should take a little side trip. PDaddy punched the new destination into the GPS, and this....THIS....is the road that we ended up on.
What started out as a black top road quickly turned into a gravel road which turned into a clay road which turned into a cut across to an access road to a an oil field. 19 miles. Lord have mercy, I was having heart palpitations. PDaddy kept waxing poetic about our surroundings and how diverting the trip was, and all I could think of was the Blair Witch, genetically altered hillbilles that live in holes in the ground where they hide before eating your face off, and the movie Turistas which PDaddy watched without the pleasure of my company. We eventually made it back to civilization.
We unknowingly planned our trip during the monsoon season in Arkansas. It rained pretty much each afternoon, but it always cleared off and allowed the swimming and fishing to commence. Interesting side note. Arkansas has the strangest severe weather television beepy alert on record. Very strange. Other interesting side note. Arkansas news girls show their teeth way more than the ones around these here parts, but they have better hair...so there is the trade off I suppose. I so enjoy news from across the nation, but it's probably for all the wrong reasons.
