AR Vacation Day 6/8

I spent today finding all types of critters (spiders and lizards and dragonflies - oh my!) as well as future art inspiration at Petit Jean State Park.

I love the look of these tree roots, and I am definitely envisioning some type of tree root inspired painting in my future.

Who doesn't enjoy being in the presence of a waterfall? It's fun to think about the awesome destructive powers of water. No matter what we do, nature will always win (that's some engineering 101 from my college days.)

AR Vacation Day 5 of 8

I'm halfway through my Arkansas vacation. We're doing our best to see all we can see, but we're still taking time to stop and smell the rhododendrons. You don't see many of these beautiful shrubs in Nebraska!
