Lake Village, AR

On October 27, 2009 our "Along the Way" adventure takes us to Lake Village, Arkansas for 6 months! Parker is working in Greenville, Mississippi...which is about 1/2 hour away. Lake Village, AR is in the Southeast corner of AR...which is the opposite corner from our last 6 month stay in AR...the Northwest corner. We must really like to border other states...lol. Oh, but the funny part...is that we are in yet another old pecan orchard!! Yeah...more free pecans for us!
We have a really nice view of Lake Chicot. It is one of the largest Oxbow lakes in North America and the largest natural lake in Arkansas. It was formed over 600 years ago by the Mississippi river.
We are about 15 minutes from the Mississippi river bridge and Casino...well, I had to mention the Casino because we always seem to be near one! and yeppers...we will be visiting it on occassion!
The other great thing about Lake Village is the hour and 20 minute drive from Parker's family...that is great! When we were in Fort Smith...it was about 4 1/2 hours.
As for Jamie...well...I have 5 tests scheduled in Little Rock to be finished before Christmas...then I will be looking for a LPN job!!! Finally...work...with less studying...I will still need to do some studying for my clinicals...the waiting list is approximately 3 months...and it is one weekend! After that...I will be studying for my RN boards! Finally! I can't wait to be an RN...working...and no more school!!!
I have posted some pics of the RV park (Pecan Grove RV Park) that we are staying at...with views of Lake Chicot.
