W. Memphis, AR: Left St. Louis this morning at 9:45 am and got to W. Memphis at 4:00, stopping at a Flying J truck stop to fuel up and have lunch. After setting up we went for a walk. This campground is situated right on the Mississippi River just across the river from Memphis. We’re only here for one night and then on to Mississippi. The drive down here was great. A beautiful, sunny fall day and lots of pretty scenery until just south of Cape Girardeau where it turns flat as a pancake. Miles and miles of cotton fields and rice paddys. On our walk we met a bunch of people—most of them on their way south for the winter like we are. Nice, friendly people.
