DAY 18 VAN BUREN TO GAINESVILLE TX

Can't add to much to Ken's description of the day other than my impressions of the scenic road we happened upon.

Turn the quiet up, turn the noise down
Let this ol' world just spin around
I wanna feel it swing, wanna feel it sway
And put some feel good in my soul
Drink a little drink, smoke a little smoke

Want a little more right, and a little less left
Little more right now, a little less what's next
Act like tomorrow's ten years away
And just kick back and let the feelin' flow
Drink a little drink, smoke a little smoke

I set my sails for a new direction
But the wind got in my way
I changed my course
But my definition of change
Just ain't the same

We found ourselves going south through the forest of western Arkansas. This is a designated scenic drive through the Winding Stair Mountain area. Miles of winding two lane road with blind corners reasonable speeds and fairly well maintained, but that's not what made it great.

Radio off, very light mist occasionally falling, mix of clouds and fog, eerie quiet. Riding in shirt sleeves with the radio off feeling very alone with the clouds and mist. The only sound was the rumble of the bike and the tires on the pavement, turn the quiet up, turn the noise down.

Good song, but have you listened to the rumble of a Harley?? No turning that noise down...
