7-27-13 (Day 3 - Ride to Mountain View)




The highs today were in the mid 80's, it felt like fall weather.  Perfect weather for riding the motorcycle.

We attempted to go to the cardboard boat races at Sandy Beach,  We changed our minds when we were only able to go a block in 10 minutes and had several more to go.

We road to Mountain View.  There was a lot of pretty scenery, but too many trees to get good pictures.  We ate our picnic lunch at the Ozark Folk Center and headed back.

We went back by Sandy Beach. The races were over but still a lot of boats to take pictures of.  It is amazing what people can do with cardboard.

We went to the visitor's center and Hiked the Mossy Bluff trail to the overlook.  The trail was 1.6 miles round trip.  At the end of the trail were 91 steps up to the overlook.  I know this because I counted each and everyone of them.  We saw a pretty view of the Greers Ferry Dam and the Little Red River.

When we returned to the motorcycle we drove the Buckeye Trail to the overlook.  A whole lot easier than the hiking trail.

We ate chili cheese burgers and fries for supper listening to our neighbors music.  Good thing we like the same kind of music.
