Weekend trip to NW AR. Vette's Mom & Dads place.

We took a trip to see Vette's mom and dad on Nov. 8,9, &10. Did some relaxing, feeding the farm animals, and some trail riding in the "mountains" Maybe you call them "hills" and "hollers". You can decide from some of the pics.

This is what they mean by a hard road. It wasn't quite all dirt riding. Pic is kinda fuzzy. I had to take it with one hand going 50 on a 4 wheeler. Another shot of the mountains.

I think we were on top of ol' Smokey! This is actually a county maintained road! I think they need to get the leaf plow out.  Where's the road?
