Couple of retirees who really enjoy travel - particularly roadtrips to the deserts and prairies. We suspect we must be nomads as characterised by Richard Grant as RV resident retiree nomads in his book "Ghost Riders"

Update from Memphis, Tennessee

Mon 24th Oct

Left Branson and headed South on the Arkansas state highway 14. Lots of rolling hills, fields and trees, very picturesque Ozark country. Went through Buffalo National Forest area, mixed broadleafed with a few conifers. Stopped at place called Mountain View for sarnie - they are having a Bean Fest next weekend, lots of cooking and eating of beans: the mind boggles, seems like a good place not to be! Continued SW to West Memphis, Arkansas, where we stayed overnight beside a very noisy highway. Luckily we had a room in the back.

Tue 25th Oct

Headed East and into Memphis, Tennessee. After brief visit to tourist center, continued to pay homage to the King at Graceland, a must. Saw everything there was to see. Seems like a nice lad!
Just popped in to the library to check email and write this. Going to look for a big cup of coffee now.

Hello - I didn't realize you were going to go down south....did your plans change and are you going to be able to see Dave? Looking forward to seeing you again. I'm in Derby at the moment....traveling back tomorrow.

Cheers!
