June 6th

Today's trip is to Fort Smith  in Arkansas. It will take 3 hours and 15 minutes. I ate my oats and got n the road by 7 in the morning. I arrived at Fort Smith. The cost was $7 for one week, I will only be staying a day here though. It is about 10:30 am, I bought the ticket and was ready to explore. Along with just viewing the grounds I was able to enter the barracks and the courthouse building. This took me a good three hours of taking my time reading every bit of information I could.

It was now 1:30 and I was done viewing the Fort. This trip was a very inspiring experience, I learned so much about our past military and the history of our quarrels. I then drove about 2 hours to get to Fossil Flats Trailhead  to have a late lunch around 3:30 (salad, sweet potato). Around 5 I drove another 2 hours back to the Motel 6 that I would be staying the night at. It is now 7 pm, I will eat my soup and go to bed.  My tank had 314 miles left, I drove 300 miles today, I will need to fill up before I get on the road tomorrow.
