It's about 7:40 in the morning. Tuesday, I believe it is April 9th, 2025. It's a beautiful day here at Mt. Nebo State Park. I got in here yesterday between three and four as I usually do. They have a check-in time at four. So I've already encountered my first person on the trail. I didn't expect it to be as quiet as it usually is in the winter when I'm here. But they let me in as they usually do when the cabin has already been prepared which it usually has. Not so when I went to Mt. Magazine last time. I got in, settled down, just looked around. Didn't do any hiking yesterday. I was going to do an episode from the cabin. And last episode you heard about what that was going to be. It actually turned out that I did a long tour of the cabin. But I didn't record myself because I forgot my tripod. So I couldn't do that like I did with cabin 13 at Mt. Magazine last time.

I have just arrived at Mt. Nebo. This is my first day of my first trip to this state park in Arkansas for 2025, and possibly my last. I don't know if I'll be coming back this year. I will likely return at some point in the future.

I thought this time, since I haven't done it before, I would give you a tour of what has been my favorite cabin to stay in here, because it is the most isolated. Now there is a cabin off to the left, or the north side of this cabin, but on the other side is just woods. This yard area is where, in the past, I have seen, because they usually come in the wintertime, lots of deer. As many as I think nine, maybe even twelve. I've seen a lot of deer at once. There you see the other cabin off on the north side. This late in the year, I'm not sure if I'll see any deer or not. It's the last week of April, the first week of May. The first time I came here, it was in a different cabin, in April, but I think it was earlier in the month. 2019 was my first visit to Mt. Nebo, six years ago. And I think this is my seventh time here. I've enjoyed it. I've stayed in several cabins here; this is my favorite.

Sometimes it seems like I just have to have dessert with every meal. I immediately want something sweet after I finish my main course. I wonder if it's habit, but it seems to happen even when I haven't done it in a while. It seems to be just a part of eating. Now, if I'm able to wait a little while, the craving usually passes. We've all heard that it takes a long time for the stomach to tell our brains that it is satisfied.
