Hi Cody and Kelly We’re watching your video and having our wine night and enjoying your video from 3 years ago when you guys were still tenting. My husband and I still watch you now with the camper. We enjoy all of your videos.❤

There's a song that mentions that tree from Disney's, The Jungle Book. Baloo's song, Bare Necessities... "Now when you pick a pawpaw Or a prickly pear And you prick a raw paw Next time beware Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw When you pick a pear Try to use the claw But you don't need to use the claw When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw Have I given you a clue?" Knew all those songs by heart because my daughter, Katie, was obsessed with the movie when she was 3 or 4. Now she's 23. Still know most of the words. lol This area looks perfect for the camping trip I'm planning with my husband for our 25th anniversary coming in May. So much beauty!!! And, you know, Paw Paws. ;)

I just found you and love all the Arkansas videos as I live there. The umbrella magnolia is common around that river- with a cluster of huge leaves at the end of the branch. Or, pawpaws have similar leaves but they alternate up the branch. It's a sub-tropic climate, so there are some very different plants there. Thanks for showing the state's natural beauty.

The tree you need identification is definitely a species of Magnolia- Umbrella Magnolia. The leaves are sometimes up to three feet long- too large, too long to be a Paw Paw. These trees grow in my land in Virginia and their leaves can be as long as my arms. g.co/kgs/ew3er3

We seen a baby copperhead on this trip, but it went behind a large bolder out of sight. We try to film all the wildlife we see, but sometimes they move too fast. For example, we have seen countless bears in Arkansas, but never seem to have the camera ready when we see them.

Hot Springs National Park was America's first national park in a city.

That's true. Also, in 1832 the United States Congress formed the first federally protected natural resource prior to national parks, BLM, and national forest. In 1921, Congress changed the name from Hot Springs Reservation to the Hot Springs National Park. This make Hot Springs National Park the oldest park to be managed by the National Park Services.

Wow. Very lovely preserve. I am absolutely stunned that Pike had it named after him. From what I gather about the character himself, he is the most celebrated Mason in North America. He was a civil war confederate general, the co-founder of the KKK and author of an outline for 3 world wars. His shrine was defiled in a BLM attack in Washington DC however Trump immediately vowed to have it repaired. It is through his most famous work "Morals and Dogma" that we understand Luciferians at the highest levels of government. He also managed to have a name equating to 33 in pythagorean numerology.

retepish sorry you had to do that. It was a very sad day. We were on Long Creek.

@@CodyandKellie I know it, love that area too, but you guys should know it is notorious for flash floods. It's about an hour drive there for me depending if I go through Shady or not.

[@CodyandKellie]

retepish we know. This is Cody. I grew up there as a child and experienced flash floods in the area back in the 90s with my parents. Fully understand and respect the area. Never go there to camp when a rainy weekend is expected.

I would love to know where this spot is at.

[@CodyandKellie]

NF-512 along long creek. There are a tone of spots along this road just like this. Thank you so much for watching!!!

During the night of June 10-11, 2010 a flash flood along Little Missouri River (Arkansas) killed at least 16 people in the campgrounds of the Albert Pike Recreation Area.[1] In a matter of less than four hours water rose from three feet to over twenty-three feet.

It was such a terrible tragedy.
