Holed up in Nacogdoches (nak*uh*doh*shus),TX for the night, I'm beat, dragged out. ready to crash. 

The city is reported to be the oldest in Texas with evidence of a settleement dating back 10,000 years. That likely makes it the oldest in the country. 

Anyway, we drove through the Missouri and Arkansas Ozark mountains this morning and afternoon.  It's a gorgeous part of the country on U.S. 65 that I haven't seen before and would like to explore a lot more.

Trees don't drop their leaves nearly so soon here as they do in Michigan, but it was in the mid- 70's today.  Beautiful weather, beautiful vistas.  The best of it I missed because we were in a hurry to get into Texas.   Finding exactly the right place takes a little planning, and timing.  We were racing through and I made this single stop where I  took all the photos within less than 25 yards of the truck.
