I broke up today's travel journal into two parts:

Part 1: Hot Springs National Park

Part 2: On the Road and Interesting Stuff I Saw

The Road Trip

My destination for tonight was Clinton, OK. I thought there were some cool Route 66 stuff to see here, and maybe there are, but I didn't see any once I left interstate 40 to get to the...

@hiptobes, I wonder how many people I'll see tomorrow at the Grand Canyon hiking in flip flops or other inappropriate footwear.
hiptobes:
Oh man, one day I'll get to see the Grand Canyon.

I'm splitting up today's travel journal into two parts:

Part 1: Hot Springs National Park

Part 2: On the Road & Interesting Stuff I Saw Today

On to part 1...

Hot Springs National Park

I overslept by about an hour, so I decided to forego the bathhouses, which, in all honesty, I wasn't all that interested in anyway. I was more interested in getting into...

That panorama shot is really cool.

@hiptobes, yeah, one of my favorite iPhone 6 features. You should try to see one on Facebook. What FB has done with them is even cooler.

PROLOGUE

As I was planning my route on Thursday, I had an important thought. It's 4th of July weekend. I should book all my hotels in advance so that I don't show up where I want to stop for the night and find out every hotel room in the town/city is full.

DAY 1

I left my parents' house in West Point, MS around 9:45...

Homeward Bound!
Dad is doing great and mom is finally getting some rest. So it's time for me to head home and be back with my Sweetie, Stephanie!
Tonight, we're going over to Eddie's for a small family get together and barbecue on the Big Deck. Eddie's slow cooking brisket and who know's what else. It'll be a fun time.

@nebula, Anything I take with my film camera will be a while. Walgreens and CVS no longer process film on site, so it takes about 10 days. And since I shoot slide film and not negatives, I have to either find a place that can scan slides for a decent price or b) buy a slide scanner. I prefer option b, but the scanner I want is $200. I won't shoot negatives because Walgreens doesn't return negatives. They give you prints and a CD. I want the negatives too. I paid for the film, I want it all back. Not sure how CVS does it.

So you know that means it's WCW. And, if you've been playing along, you know that I can never choose one. Well, that's not completely true, but more often than not, it's been impossible for me to choose just one WCW. There are just so many scrumptious, interesting ladies to choose from. So, without any further ado, here are my two WCWs for this week....

I went out to Mississippi State University, where I went to college and earned a B.S. in geology, this afternoon. I have plenty of photos and videos to share, but I need to process them before uploading. So you'll have to settle with a couple of selfies until I can post the best of the rest.

I'm guessing more than a few will. If you would, comment and say so, ok? And tell me which one you'd want.

Unfortunately, there wasn't a link on the FB post from which I downloaded this photo or I'd include it so you could go buy them.

Stay Tuned...

Thanks for the topic @rambo & @missy. I wish I could say I won the lottery, but we don't have a lottery in Nevada. It would take an amendment to the state constitution to allow it. Protects the casino industry. And I rarely go to the California or Arizona borders to buy tickets. Though I might buy some on my trip back home from Mississippi....
