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.

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. ...

Pool Time!

We spent the weekend at our friends' pool. We took the dogs with us Sunday so they could have a play date. M and B have to pit bulls that are so sweet. Nahla, the youngest one, loves to play! They were also puppy sitting the cutest beagle ever!  They absolutely love going places! They were waiting in the car while I was loading our things.  I've never been able to get Hatfield in the pool, but Lilly loves it. She started off just sitting on the steps and one day she just jumped in. So, now she jumps in every now and then to cool off. Kev mixed up refreshing peach mojitos (I guess I've had major peach craving lately) this weekend. I'd share the recipe but that's his job. I never really know what all goes into what I'm drinking. I just know it's delicious! 

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! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.
