So last night we pulled into the walmart here in Forrest City. I checked the transmission fluid and it smelt wicked burnt, so I spent the morning calling shops to get a filter change. All were swamped with work. It looked like we were gonna be stuck here for the weekend. First Choice Automotives was … Continue reading Forrest City, AR Dire news.

What a hot and humid day! I'm about to forfeit visiting my aunt and uncle to be able to get North some. Or into higher altitude. Brinkley reminds me of the Alien from Lilo and Stitch. Which makes me giggle internally. I like to think that I'm a funny person, and that I like to … Continue reading Benton-Brinkley, AR

The last few days have been stormy fand rainy. We tried to find some swimming in Hot springs, but couldn't find any accessible ones that werren't in a bathhouse. And bathhouse parking seemed very inaccessible. I did meet some friendly people in Hot Spings and made enough money to get to Dino dig in Murfreesboro. … Continue reading Hot Springs-Murfreesboro- Benton, AR

Good day! Today is sunshiney and bright and warm. Yesterday we spent the day trying to outrun a storm and ending up getting caught anyway. We awoke at the flying J travel center. Apparently I have a roommate right now DX My house is too small for a roommate, yet he sleeps in the kid … Continue reading Checotah, Ok- Witchita, AR -Mount Ida, AR

The boys really enjoyed the water and I enjoyed the company. Atreyu is making such big swimming progress with a new float support and pool noodle. He's pushing his … Continue reading McCloud- Checotah

Good evening! My kids are all tucked up in bed. I'm in my bug and ready to force myself to report on this busy day! We stayed at the Walmart in town which was a pretty shit location. Besides the occasional home bum coming by and talking themselves noisily around my bus, some noisy machine … Continue reading OKC-McLoud

Good afternoon!Yesterday was a beautiful day and I should've written about it, but I was very tired after all the celebrating.Mothers day started at a reasonable time for me. I received a gift from my friend Crikett which partially funded my iced coffee. I took the kids to a playground and spent the morning there. … Continue reading Wichita Falls- Cache OK- OKC

It's a late night for me here. I have to go check where I left off last, too. Righty-roo. We did bathe yesterday. First I took a shower, then I threw the kids in the tub. I'm afraid I left my bar of bronner soap and my neem face wash. Mike played some guitar for … Continue reading Wichita Falls, TX

Last night was another thunderstorm. With the mud debacle I had completely forgotten to dry out my blankets from the leak I have in the bug doors. It wasn't so bad wet, but I could hardly get any sleep. This made my morning rough. The boys ate jelly tortillas. Then we stopped at the gas … Continue reading Vernon, TX is awesome – Wichita Falls

What a day. And it'd only 4pm. Last night we ate grilled cheese and watched The Jungle Book (rip off version). I took the chance to sit outside. First I read a little, but the birds were chirping so I began watching. I saw a bunch of wildlife, though the hawk chasing the two little … Continue reading Mud Brine Lake to Vernon
