vacation in the Ozarks, day seven

We visited some new places this year and one was the Indian Hill Rock Cave at the resort. This view shows the enormous size of the cave, and you can understand how the indians could live inside this cave, a natural protection from the heat and the cold.


One nice thing about the location of the resort was that the trip to Mountain View, AR, was only about 35 minutes. We visited the Arkansas Folk Center Craft Village in the afternoon. This center is a state park and the "artists" are hired to keep the music and crafts alive, as a connection to our past. The Bryson's gave a 30 minute concert the day we were there.



Listening to the concert also gave us a chance to escape the heat for awhile.




For dinner, we headed to JoJO's Catfish Wharf. As you can see in this photo, Leah and Janelle are talking about babies again! (That's Sharon and Winnie in the background)

We finished the day with the concert at the Folk Center, which was my favorite part of the trip! Dave Smith was the MC and he is a favorite at the center. Other groups included "Up a Creek" and "Here Comes Treble".
