Arkansas
hey everybody i just got back from arkansas it was sooo fun. we went to like three state parks. the first one was the crator of diamonds state park which was pretty boroing but oh well i guess for going to a field full of dirt that they call a crator heheh but the other two parks were just amazing they were soooo beautiful.
Queen Wilhelmina state park was very beatiful but we didn't do much. we stayed in the state parks lodge itself it was amazing looking it was new but they gave it that rustic look with the wood walls and beds but it did have carpet. our room had an amazing view im talking spectacular. The next day we rode the little tourist train thing around the lodge it was kind of boring but i did get to see a rattlesnake thats always cool. After we left there we drive and drive and drive through the beautiful mountians they had there to go to Petit jean State park.
At Petit jean state park we did alot of things first of all when we got there we had about 3 hrs because our cabin wasnt ready on time. so we hiked to a bear cave (still didn't see any bears what so ever) that hike was short only .5 miles round trip, but i heard a small waterfall so i lft the trail (very illegal) and keep walking in the woods and saw a pretty waterfall that i had to hang on to a tree and lean over the edge to get a good pic of (speaking of which all my pics are on myspace soo youll have to go see them) then i got back to the main trail and thats when i realized it was illegal to go past something i went past. then we took a hiked to a small cave dwelling it was pretty. On this little .25 mile i once again got side tracked by rock climbing on the rocks that were there very very fun kept going and going and going then i realized i was about 80ft off the ground and had to climb down but it was sooo fun doing that. i found my way to the cave dwelling after that (didnt use the marked trail). inside the dwelling it was very dark and i didnt know if anything would be in there so i threw a rock very hard at a wall and like 20 birds flew out OOPS, hehehe then we went to the pool and had a little swim time. after that we ate at resturant over looked the mountians of course.
the next day early in the morning we did a 2 mile hike to the huge water fall that is the state park it was fun also but no rocks to climb on until the end when we got to the water fall and i got as close as possible to it without swimming hehe the hike down was very easy but back up the 250 ft drop was not as fun but i again went off the beaten path i did twice the work because i didnt use the nice steps they had winding down the mountian but i did it in have the time because i didnt have to zig zag up like the steps did
this was a very very fun but short vactation
well until next week
PEACE OUT
