Arkansas Sphinx

 Astrid and her friend Logan hiked to the Arkansas Sphinx yesterday.  It is in the area of Pilot Rock.

 These two are Astrid's pictures she sent to me by phone.  That is Logan sitting in the "eye" of the Sphinx.  It was a nice day for a hike.  Today should be a little cooler, but spring is on the way.

Astrid is liking her new job at the healthy smoothie place--Tropical Smoothie.  She is still doing her old job at the gym, too.  She signed up for DECCA, a work program at school.  She can leave school at noon and gets some school credit for working.  She had to drop AP Spanish and will only graduate with Honors not High Honors, but I know she is happy with her decision.  She likes earning money and is a little tired of the drama associated with High School.  She is growing up--will be 18 in April!  Seems impossible!
