All too often, the forest had been obscuring our view, so we stopped for this brief glimpse of the countryside. Hidden from view, but this point overlooks ‘Ponca International’ a grandiose name for a grass strip runway, which I discovered on the satellite view researching where this picture was taken.

We are going to take a few days for our trip to Beaumont. On the way we’ll be looking for places to stop in future, and places we’d like to spend more time visiting. Our plan for tonight is to stay in Hot Springs, Arkansas. We could camp at one of the sites around Lake Ouachita, but the temps are going to drop too low for Ginger’s comfort.
