No construction that I know of, but you shouldn't be traveling 167 anyway. From Little Rock we always come through Pine Bluff and hit Hwy 63. It'll take you straight to Moro Bay.
Once you get to the state park, just keep going straight past the park store and the picnic site I'm going to grab will be on your right, just past the big orange ferry on display.
I'll try to be up there to meet everyone, but my 53 will be parked in front of the table.

Jeff we plan on rolling out about 8:30 in the morning. That should put us there around 11:30 -12 by my figures.

I'll give you a ring in the morning when we're headed out..

If we get there and its rainy and nasty, we'll fall back to the cabin I rented.

Well, not sure what I was thinking, plenty of construction on 167, just not much to worry about on the weekend. It'll be real nice once they open the bypass around Sheridan.
I have to go to LR Thurs for a Dr. appointment, hopefully I'll be released to go back to work.

So far no rain here :-) And from looking at the radar, it might stay to the north of us.

The rain tried its best but it was still fun as always..

Had fun hanging out around the campfire, Jeff, haven't done that in years.

Beautiful morning on the bay, we had breakfast out on the deck.. Screened in porch, I could get used to this.

Glad you enjoyed the company Joe, I had a good time myself. We usually have a fire at home at least once every weekend, sometimes it burns all weekend long :-)
