Big Bore and I had a blast during our quick trip to Petit Jean State Park in Central Arkansas earlier this week. The picture above shows the view of the valley as seen from the lodge breezeway. The locals pronounce the park, "Petty Gene," but we preferred our own Frenchy version: "pay-TEE zshawn." Oui, oui. Especially since the park got its name from a young French gal who explored the area centuries ago, posing as a guy. Long story.
The park overlooks the Arkansas River Valley. The locals pronounce that: "AR-kun-saw. We prefer: "Ar-KAN-zuz." The picture above is of some ancient non-French gal who was exploring the ledges of an overlook, while BB was hollering, "Don't you dare get any closer to the edge!"Below is another picture of the view from the lodge. "Magnificent" or "Magnifique" --no matter where you are from.
Next up: our hike down to Cedar Creek Falls.
