6/16/2020 Road Tripping...

The morning beconed a run across Arkansas and into Oklahoma. The mission was to scope out The Southern Belle Dining Railroad Car.

How did a rail car that once transported WWII troops come to rest next to Highway 59 in Heavener, Oklahoma, anyway? It was bought by a retired railman and used as a lake cabin and then sold. It wad eventually restored to its 1940s elegance, & now a mighty fine restaurant that is true to it's southern roots.

The Southern Belle serves some of the best "fixins" you have ever tasted. I can personally vouch for the Coconut Cream Pie.

Sun 🌞 & Wind finally won out and a Hotel Shower was the final reward for the day.

I hope you have as many smiles and blessings this week as us "Road Critters!"
