Hot Springs and Eureka Spring Arkansas

A little catching up tonight. We are in Miner Missouri. Today was a travel day as we did our best to outrun the rain. We started the day in between two massive weather systems. We started out getting rained on and finished the day being rained on but the rest of the day was mostly dry.
The photos show the day we had in Hot Springs AR. where hot springs are everywhere and the water temp. is about 140 degrees. The next day we were in Eureka Springs where the spring water was ice cold. This little town is rated as the best city in Arkansas. We have no idea if that is true but we had a great time here. There are four different trolley routes and we road them all taking in the local culture

We finished off Mississippi with a visit to Vicksburg National Battle Field. The photos are a little out of order. After that we headed for Monroe LA. trying to out run the rain. So far so good.
