Hello out there! This would be Gary & Jan, 2 of the nicest people around, in front of their wonderful home! We met them in California at an RV park. Gary has eyes to own a bus, Jan saw Bill outside doing something and approached him, Wala...instant friends! Their big mistake was saying "if you are ever in Missouri, come and see us.....so.....WE DID!They showed us the best time. they took us to eat, and this is one of the cool places we went. The Jasper house in Arkansas, what a view, they close at 3pm and we didn't get there til 2pm so didn't have a lot of time, but did get these pictures!
Can't you just see yourself sitting here on a cool summer night looking out at the Buffalo River canyon? ME TOO!
This is the Bull Schoals Dam, what a beautiful area, and the weather played along with us!
This is Jan & Gary, Jan is taking a picture of me taking a picture of her!!We were sitting by this wonderful little spring that I believe was in Arkansas.
This was right by another place we ate and I couldn't resist taking its picture, knew you would enjoy it!
Now this is the best place of all, it belongs to Gary & Jan, in Protem,Mo., and this is from their patio, note the hummingbird, they had a lot of them, and notice the view, I would never leave home! In the summer the water in this lake is like bathwater, and that is why you will only find them on the road in the winter, they have a beautiful boat,which you will see, and they "noodle" and boat all summer with all the friends on the lake, and they have a LOT of them!
We were sitting on their porch after dinner, and were blessed with the best thunderstorm, I tried really hard to get more pictures than this, but lightnin' is faster than this old gal!!Here we are, ain't we just cute?? Had a ball in their boat, were introduced to quite a few people,that also have homes on or near the lake.
Here they are getting the boat ready to take out, this was the first time in the water this year, Thanks guys!
You know me and water, love to take pictures like this, just can't help myself!!
Now if this isn't the cutest face you've ever seen, you aren't a dog lover! Meet Daisy! Bill fell in love with her and the guy told us we could have her, BUT...... She hates leashes, loves freedom so much she cries if you leash her, that wouldn't work on the road, ratz, almost had a big dog, but can't blame her, we don't like leashes either! Gary usually has treats, and after that, she was thirsty, so she hops in the water, takes a big drink, and then she wants in the boat with Gary, OH NO YA DON'T, the inside of the boat is white!
The look on her face was sooo sad, sniff, ya don't love me no more, PLEEEESE!! 
The next few pictures are taken on the lake. It was so amazing, first you were in Missouri,then Arkansas, then back in Missouri! It was such a fun time. Keep looking down!
Although this is side ways, don't know why, it was so cool, they actually light it up at night, would have loved to see that!
Then it was time to put the boat to bed. This is their slip, it has room for 2 boats and a deck for partying! Pretty cool.
After that we went 4wheeling in their Rhino. One of the places they were gona take us was flooded at the time because the lake was 20ft above normal. We did get to visit all around and meet more people, what fun!
SEE.....Rhinos don't go there!
Here the dynamic duo sit, Bill was holding onto a strap, and that help me in, as my hiney was a bit (yeah right) bigger than the seat, but who cares, we had a ball! Get a load of that view folks, Whody loved it! Thanks to Gary and Jan for the good time they showed us.
This is not even a fraction of what we did, we road on a ferry, went all over in the Ozarks, and they fed us too! I just couldn't put everything on, so put on what I could!! I just wish you all could have been here with us, I KNOW they would love to entertain you too!
Well, onward and forward, heading for Oklahoma, so sit down, shut up and hang on......HERE WE GO!!! Love, Smiles & Prayers, Arlette & Bill too, and the sad Sassy! (she couldn't go with us) SNIFF
