Day 77 Downtown Riverside RV Park–Hang Around Day

on Monday, March 16, 2015

We decided it would be a nice idea to spend another night so I went to the office  hoping to secure the same site. Nope, we had to move because another rig was coming in for a one week stay. Since we had to close up and move I asked for a waterfront site.

After breaking down and moving we were glad to have riverfront access. It is very nice here and the office staff told me that most people come for one night but end up staying 3-4 nights.

Initially we thought about going back into town for the day but after some discussion we decided to stay at our site and enjoy the weather. Before going out to sit I opened all the windows and cleaned the MH.  Ron set out our chairs so we could eat lunch overlooking the river. The sun was shining brightly and our  weather spirits were up.

When I got outside to sit, not 3 minutes later heavy cloud cover blocked out the sun. WHAT! Yes, then the wind picked up and it got very cold! Then to make matters worse I felt raindrops on my hand – OH! Not rain drops but bird poop!!! This wasn’t going as planned. LOL

All day the sun was  shining and then it wasn’t. We planned our time outside by the appearance of the sun. Despite that we enjoyed the day and met two nice couples  from New York. They had dogs so Jewel had  a grand time playing with  them.

Of course Ron had to get his sunset picture!

Later that evening we were entertained by one of the city’s newest attractions – River Lights in the Rock – a  $2.4 million project featuring  three LED – illuminated  downtown bridges that have bright light shows each hour. We could see all three bridges from our camp site.

The lights on this bridge looked like they were  were passing through a tube with different colors and the bridge to the left of it and the Clinton Memorial Bridge are coordinated so the colors match. It is really very cool to watch.

It was another good day here in Little Rock, Arkansas. Who knew!
