Kinda got lost on dates and times. We left Carlsbad Caverns and headed to Texas. We were going to Guadalupe NP but they had some fires so we change directions.
Spent a day in Texas. Wasn't a huge fan. Decided to head back up and made it to Oklahoma then Arkansas. We seem to be being chased by a variety of storm's. We have been on the road for 29 days and only had 1 whole dry day. Hopefully we don't hit a really bad storm but we have seem some pretty good lighting and some pretty high winds. We were just outside Little Rock when we had the alarm come over the radio saying watch for hail storm may cause damage to vehicles. Wasn't sure what to think of that so we stayed inside the Van for the night and played dice. We are currently in Louisiana and have been around some more storms. Hopefully we will get out of them as we move into Florida...Read more

Rosewood Plantation

So we had a pretty educational day. The Rosewood Plantation aka Mount Vernon (not sure how that works). 🤔
Anyway. Pretty cool to see 1st hand. It seemed like these people were at least decent to their slaves (If that is even possible) They let their slaves to become share croppers..
We seen a new kinda wasp that thankfully we don't have in Oregon. The Red Velvet Ant. Really amazing looking. The females can sting and don't have wings and the male's can't sting and have wings. Apparently their sting hurts so bad people say it could kill a cow. So it is also known as the cow killer (It has yet to do so).
Also seen a couple Mississippi Kite birds. They are a Rapture. Very pretty.
There are also some very amazing plants and flowers here.Read more
