Left Hot Springs and headed north along SR-7 which is designated as one of the state’s scenic highways. It was rolling wooded terrain with lots of autumn foliage still in it’s glory. Arrived in Russellville and snuggled into our room until friend Alex joined us for dinner. Conversation with Alex is always a delight. Topics ranged from Arkansas history and demographics to ancient history and lots of stuff in between.
Our walking tour through the historic heart of Stavanger gave us insight into the canning and maritime industries that fueled this community as well as some tasty tidbits.
Our short visit to Njardarheimr gave us insight into life in 11th Century Norway and educated us on the role of “Vikings” within the Norse community of the time.
It was so good to see you and chat and reminisce!
