Road Construction Ahead, "Significant Delay", Consider Alternative Route. I'm a reader, I considered the warning and we had a long way to go with a 6 year old grand-daughter, so I looked for an alternate route. There was a highway that ran parallel to Interstate 40 that looked easily accessible, and it passed through Brinkley, Arkansas. And just as would happen, we needed a bathroom stop. Brinkley has an impressive brick railroad depot (for Arkansas) that has become a community museum (with restrooms). So we stopped and had a delightful visit. The two women who staffed the museum were delighted that we stopped and had to show and explain every item to Madeline. And they told me don't miss the old depot out back. It was a gorgeous spring day with pear trees blooming and clouds in a blue sky. And frequent trains that passed by. My alternate route took a little longer, but I hate to be stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic. And this detour turned out to be a lot more fun. And who's to say which way was the detour.
