Saturday breakfast as usual at Waffle House, which has been our practice for about three weeks. Then we drove on to Pinnacle Mountain where there are many hiking trails. We drove up to a visitor's and nature center to begin.
We walked out onto a deck for a look at the valley below. Awesome!!
Aren't cameras amazing? Just zoom in for a closer look!
From the Center, we hiked up one of the trails. Since we are not used to a lot of exercise, we wimped out before we neared it's end and headed back. But good exercise, non the less.

Enough for today. However later, Andrew called and wanted to know what we wanted to explore and if he could help us find anything. So we told him we had done our exploring for that day, but we would meet them the next day for church and Olive Garden after. And Gary plans to go see a submarine near our RV park. They were anxious to share their church service with us and especially to go to Olive Garden!!

Gary used his free time to go on to the USS Razorback submarine and museum, just down the street from our RV Park. The submarine was named for the razorback whale.
While Gary was gone I worked on pictures and read.
This submarine was manufactured here in the United States and used during WWII, Korean, and Vietnam wars. Then it was leased to Turkey for the next thirty years. It was returned to the US and the US Navy was going to scrap it. A group of concerned Navy Veterans who had served aboard the Razorback, raised the money to save it and turn it into a museum.
Just three more days left before moving on. So we spent Monday and Tuesday checking out more museums and driving about Little Rock.
