Day Twenty One: Little Rock to Memphis

We awoke in Dumas, took our usual length of time to shower/git on out of there, and made our way to the capital of Arkansas.

Nearby the parking lot where we moored Penelope, we came upon an Arkansan project that seemed to not be working out so well.

Then, we lunched at an especially sweet establishment known as The Flying Saucer. We sampled some of the 70 beers on tap (all $2.50 on Mondays), and proceeded to the Clinton Presidential Library and Museum.

There, we were overwhelmed with information. Much like the former president's book, his library is brimming with content. Highlights included:

• the various gifts Clinton received over his eight years (like these Russian nesting dolls)

• much correspondence between the president and such wide-ranging figures as Whoopi Goldberg, Paul Newman, Bono, Dom DeLuise, Mr. Rogers, and many average Americans

• and, a life-size replica of the Oval Office, decorated as it was during his presidency.

After our trip to the museum, we briefly returned to our new favorite watering hole

before making our way to Memphis, Tennessee.

There, we met up with Ferrett's friend Nelie, who showed us a great time around her favorite parts of town, which included the infamous ducks from the Peabody Hotel,

and a hole-in-the-wall bar that has been featured in several movies.
