Vacation 2013: Arkansas - The Natural State


We headed out for our annual vacation on June 19th, this year we were on our own.  Due to me not having a job we were unable to go to Colorado which turned out to be a good thing because where we usually go has been surrounded by a wildfire.  We headed to Arkansas to see friends and some of Mr. Giggles family.  On the way up we stayed at Tyler State Park which is one of our favorites and ate at my favorite restaurant, Jalapena Tree.  We stayed at Magazine Mountain State Park which was beautiful.  We made several day trips, one being to the Bentonville/Rogers area to see our friends and to Conway to see Mr. Giggles cousins.  We had a really good time but we were glad to get home.  Here are some pictures of the beautiful scenery we saw.
 
Wildflowers were still in bloom.

Great pictures! Love the barn and the wildflower shots. They could be postcards!
