One Tank Trips

If it's been a while since you've stepped off into a good cave, or even if it hasn't, I would like to introduce you to Cosmic Cavern in Berryville, Arkansas. A good introduction to spelunking with more adventurous options available.

When planning our trip I asked my wife to find us a place to stay at the halfway point between Branson and Texarkana so we could have one more night on the road and break up the drive a little. She found a gem near downtown Little Rock that we had never heard of before, a Bed & Breakfast called "The Hornibrook Mansion, Empress of Little Rock," and it was fantastic.

How did you spend your summer vacation? My wife Donna and I did something this year that we haven't done in a long time, spent a week together on "vacation." Depending on your relationship with your spouse that can be a dream come true or a nightmare. Ours was terrific. We loaded up the truck and headed for Eureka Springs, Arkansas for a few days, more on that later, and then to Branson,
