4/16/12 and 4/17/12 Hot springs, AR

Monday morning awoke to a cool 53 degrees with sun shining.  It was a beautiful day.  I put in my work hours and then we were off by bike to travel the Petit Jean Mountain Ride.  The ride was great with lots of windy roads, beautiful roadside and no traffic.  See pics...

Tuesday the day didn't start out quite as pretty with overcast skys and a little colder and damper.  We clad a few more clothes and our chaps, got on the bike and took off the The Diamond Ride.  As we got down the road the sun broke out and it was another beautiful day. 

Today the roads were not as curvy but still beautiful scenery. Didn't take many pics today but here's a couple.

We made it to the Diamond Mine and there were a lot of people there gathering thier spades and buckets to take to the fields to mine diamonds.  Me, I'll take the easier route of acquiring diamonds and get married.
