only two hours north, and well worth the drive!

the little town of mountain view, arkansas, is just a two-hour drive north from little rock and is unlike any other place i have ever been. wonderful music, crafts, and people! see my separate page on mountain view, arkansas, for more detailed info.

This is a great place to have lunch, or to hang out on the roadside deck on a nice day. Tried some specials; like the Mushroom soup with Brie cheese. Yummy. The crabcakes were adequate, but nothing like my Maryland crabcakes.....
Little Rock: I Grudgingly Call It Home
by BarbieWasFat
"HOME SWEET HOME"
Little Rock is my home, and maybe this is why I have such a vendetta against it. After all, people seldom love their hometowns. But when the only things your city has ever produced are Bill Clinton and racism, you have to step back and consider what's going wrong.
Little Rock, Arkansas ... I like to call it the worst of both worlds. On one end it's a mediocre suburban Anywhere, bleak and second-rate and grimy. It has very little character, since everyone is trying to be a weak imitation of the larger cities. On the other hand, Little Rock shows its Southern pride with toothless biggots and churches the size of space stations. It's like a hideous marriage between the world of soccer moms and repressed sexuality, and the world of unfriendly hillbillies and three-legged dogs.
Everything closes at eight.
