Default Arkansas Road Trip
Just got back from my first solo Road Trip thru the Ozark Mountains .
Had a GREAT time, met some wonderful people, and got to do some things like play the banjo and jam with Pappy Mellons a RETIRED moonshiner ! Got to dance the Mountain Jig at the town square in Mountain View Arkansas, go deep inside my first cavern and go to a horse ranch and put horse **** on a stick to make a **** Sickle !!!
My niece and her husband posted a slide show with some cool music on "YOU TUBE" of the weeks adventure. If Ya want to view it go to "YOU TUBE" and enter --Banjo Bob Browns video slideshow in Mountain View AR..
Happy Trail's

We head for AR every chance we get. Great riding and scenery. Love the Eureka Springs area, and the Jasper area with the Buffalo River is incredible. Great canoeing.
