2013-09 A great stop in Arkansas - Cane Creek State Park

We arrived in the evening at this state park south of Little Rock and Pine Bluff. What a very nice park - huge water/electric RV spots with lots of space around, many with views of the lake, nice clean restrooms including showers, boat slips, fishing piers, bike and kayak rentals. The visitor center was pretty impressive with live critters on display such as alligator, turtles, and a tarantula (even though it was a "chocolate" tarantula, I still wouldn't touch it). They had nice nature trails, from 2.5 to 15 miles long.

 

I hiked about 3 miles of trail that evening; the next morning Gary and I rode bikes to the first suspension bridge and back - about 6 miles round trip - before we hit the road. It was hot and humid but mostly shady, and if we'd had time, I would've done the whole 15 miles no doubt. Had a big stupid grin on my face the whole way (having a great time) but had to work hard to ignore Gary's moaning and groaning it's too hot, too humid, ugh, it's too hot, too humid, ugh.
Boy, you do know where we're headed, right?
