Hiking. A hike in Arkansas that I have always wanted to do, but never made the time for... This is the year!

Indian Creek Trail to Eye of the Needle

This hiking trail has been described as the most challenging in Arkansas.

AllTrails says "To reach the falls you must scramble through a rocky creek, at times wading through water or you must travel on the sheer edge of a high bluff, or a combination of the above. The reward is in the scenery."

Kayaking. We are eager to get out on the river! The first decent day we get, you will find us kayaking on the Illinois River.

We are currently closely watching the weather to time a Buffalo National River float soon. Water levels are an important factor when choosing when and where to float the Buffalo.

Losing my job of almost a decade was a blow at first. But then... I viewed this as an opportunity. I saw this as life changing my direction. It is the set of the sails, not the direction of the wind that determines which way we will go. -Jim Rohn The new: I got my therapist license in 2 new states (heeeey there Oklahoma and...
