RV Camping Trip #2: Petit Jean Mountain State Park Campground, Petit Jean, Arkansas

Our new header for the blog reflects our "broadened" lifestyle thanks to our new RV!

For our 2nd trip, Stacey mentioned going to Petit Jean Mountain State Park and hiking the Cedar Falls. I hadn't been there in many, many years, and NEVER got to stay – day trips only. So... SOUNDS GREAT TO ME!! :)

We made plans for last weekend a week earlier when the weather reports said low 90's for the high. By the end of the week the reports had changed to high 90's, verging on 100's!! ugh. But thankfully, up on the mountain, the temps weren't that extreme and we did alright....

Well, we did better than alright, we had a GREAT TIME!

WE BOUGHT AN RV... Yep, I said it... WE BOUGHT AN RV!!

Here we are about to drive off the lot, ready to "Go RV'ing!"

Coming from a lifelong love of boating, I'd always looked on to the shore of those poor landlocked people in their big white boxes with pity, thinking they were missing out on the joys we were having on the water. Well, I can now say... I WAS WRONG!

They had it right all along. I used to say one of the things I loved about boating was where ever you went, you took your belongings/home with you. But so do people in RVs.

I also used to think "How can they be so close to the water and not be in it/on it?" Well, now I also know, you can do both!
