A little relaxing, a little grave walking and then back on the road.
Sunday was fairly uneventful. Vicki fixed a great Sunday brunch that we enjoyed out on their patio/deck. This gives a great view of the lake. Later I sought out a couple of cemeteries in the area to photograph some headstones. One cemetery, over by Shirley, Arkansas, had been documented on Find A Grave by someone else but there were very few pictures added. I took about 100 pictures that I later uploaded to the individual memorial pages. Another cemetery, that I had passed on my drive in, had photo request posted for eight of the graves so I drove over there and found the graves so I could fulfil the request for some folks.
The rest of the day was spent relaxing and visiting with Don & Vicki. They had taken the pontoon boat back to it's storage facility and were ready to kick back. They have the big RV garage plus a four car garage attached to the other side of the house they don't have a space big enough to hold the pontoon boat. The four car garage is filled with their two vehicles, a jet boat, Ski-Doos and a flat trailer.
This morning, Monday, it was time to hook up and get back on the road. We pulled out around 8:30 and started working our way back to Interstate 40 and further east. We picked up I-40 just west of Memphis. We stopped for the night at a small RV park about 40 miles west of Nashville. That will give us less than 300 miles to travel tomorrow to our destination in Columbus, Indiana.

Now, I've heard of planning routes to take in the sights, shopping, and genealogical sources of other types, but I've not ever heard of planning a route to take pictures of graves for other people... It's different - and it helps other people, so good on you.
