Hiking Pinnacle

This morning I decided to go hike Pinnacle Mountain. We have had some very cool temperatures the last few days, so it wasn't scorching hot.
The sign about half way up. I will be honest i didn't make it to the summit. I went to the number nine and took a few pictures. It's very rocky and steep around the eight and nine marks. My nerve damaged leg and foot was starting to go numb and i wanted to be able to run down the mountain.
The view from where I stopped. This is Lake Maumelle. The Arkansas River is on the other side that I couldn't see.


The Arkansas River Valley
After I ran down the mountain, I decided to run the King Fisher Trail. This part of the Little Maumelle River. 
I love these huge bald cypress trees.
These are called Cypress Knees. I think they look funny.
Afterwards. I enjoyed being out there and need to make it a habit. If I climb the mountain a few times, my foot will get better and I can make it to the top.

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey!

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...
