Around the Park

We had a lot of rain yesterday so this morning, Manuel got up on the roof to remove some of the water gathered on the slide awnings.

We will head up the mountain to Petit Jean State Park.  After we did our touring of Petit Jean State Park, we drove by more of Bob's Grandparents' property.  This street was named after his Grandmother.  Her maiden name was Barborek.  Here is BARBOREK LANE.  All the cross streets off Marina Rd were named after the property owners.  Nice tribute.
