Arkansas is about 200 yards the other side of the freeway.

We are spending the night at the Texarkana KOA, A114. Got in about 1630 hours (for the Mickey Mousers, Little Hand On 4, Big Hand on 6)

Spaces are kind of tight and the Freeway is a little to close. But Hey! We did way over our project limit in miles and it's just a place to sleep. Will turn the BR AC on to drown out the freeway noice. Plus, I take the hearing aids out when beddy-bye time comes so I will not hear a thing.

Got off on a 1 hour 15 minute late start, but that always happens when we are leaving home. To many last minute add-ons that delay me.

Was up to 11 MPG at one point in the trip with the F350 dually, but then filled up at half-full (half-empty) mark and reset the gauge. Got 9.8 on the last 100 miles or so, but Hwy 59 in Texas is a twisty-turny with one and two horse towns. Roads were good though, not like I-washboard-10

Only problem with inside Hanna was the drawer on the sofa-bed slid out.

Heading to Tom Sawyer RV in Mephis for tomorrow nights stay.
