As we left Nebraska into Arkansas the weather changed on us completely. We had rain into Springdale Arkansas 80 to 90 percent of the time. We were able to so see several rods, farms and even some homes flooded from all the rain that they had for several days. The ride was difficult, so much rain on the roads made the visibility very poor and every time a big tractor trailer went by we had zero visibility. We arrived in Springdale around 4:30 in the afternoon. Chuck took us trough some back roads that offered some great scenery, even with the weather being bad we were able to enjoy riding through some beautiful country side. In Springdale we meet up with Patricia, Chamber of Commerce and Special Olympics coordinator, she was great she had several things waiting for us, we massages waiting at the hotel, a great dinner and a rodeo (a first for me!) Special thanks to Carrol and the the ladies on her team for staying so long giving massages to all the riders, it sure felt good and relaxing after a full day of cold and rain. We also celebrated Ed's birthday. All in all it was a very nice afternoon and evening. Tomorrow Memphis.
