Day 2: Memphis, TN to Brushy Lake, OK
May 18, 2010
Day two was a little more interesting than the previous day because we finally started seeing some new states and scenery. Memphis was super humid and full of mosquitoes- something I looked forward to leaving behind once we got out west! We crossed the Mississippi and headed west through Arkansas and on to Oklahoma.

Arkansas was not quite as exciting as I somehow thought it was, but I did get to see my first armadillo! It was dead, but it was still an armadillo!
We stayed the night at Brushy Creek State Park in Oklahoma. The campground was right on the lake and we pulled up just in time for sunset!

Jules, dead armadillos depress me.
I know, it is sad! But I’m excited I at least saw one. They’re so weird!
