Talimena Scenic Drive

 

The Mountains of Talimena Drive

We started driving east to take the Talimena scenic drive through the Ouachita mountain range. On the way after stopping for gas, I noticed that the trailer had lost battery power. The gas station was next to an auto parts store. I asked the clerk if any repair shops were open, but it’s the start of the Memorial Day Weekend. He did have the battery clip I needed and a crimping tool for attaching it. After a couple of tries, the connection was made and we were on our way. The mountain range runs West to East and is 2000 feet above the surrounding land, the road goes up and down the top ridge, providing many beautiful views. We stopped that night at Clear Spring Campground near Texarkana’s, TX.
