Change of pace...

      Iris is at that one month stage, where she's going from just staring to watching your face,  the mobile, and is more aware of activity. It was great to be there for that transition. Like most lucky grandmothers, I handed her back and moved on.
      Yesterday, I was going to head north.... Branson,Mo., but since I hadn't planned on a show or a theme park, I changed my route. We're expecting 2 days of showers and although Branson is supposed to be a great town, walking around in the rain doesn't appeal.
     I headed for the national park at Hot Springs. I arrived yesterday afternoon and have not left the campsite...

 

 ...there are many trails that promise pretty vistas at the end and I'd like to tour the town and maybe the baths. There are also some highly recommended scenic byways in this part of the state. So, I think I'll stay here awhile.... haven't been at one campground for more than a night.  I might even name a couple of the wildlife that seem to share my site.

 

Be good to each other...
