Bloodspite, who lives just north of the border in Missouri, offers up these tips to help you navigate your way through the area. Interestingly - both of the farms we looked at have NW Arkansas connections. The owners of the one up in Buchanan County, Missouri, just retired to the Beaver Lake area, and our new neighbors are going to spend the next week camping at Beaver Lake.... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html Sun, 10 Jun 2007 10:24:43 -0600 Well at the time I E-mailed it I figured you'd go "Funny ha ha" and delete it :P Once I saw you linked I had to make sure she got credit where it was due. Especially as she knows where I live....and they live close to me....and I work in the same facility as her husband sometimes....and dangit she just *might* kick me in the shins! ;) That added to my currently weird sleep/work schedule didn't help communication either lol http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-61007 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-61007 Mon, 11 Jun 2007 01:39:48 -0600 LMFAO.... Considering I just got off the phone with a good friend of mine, who is CURRENTLY STUCK ON THE HIGHWAY IN ARKANSAS.... I am SOOO laughing!!!! And yes, I'm sending her a link to this. You would not believe how many accidents she's been stuck behind/saw going the opposite direction in Arkansas over the past month or so.

Or is that no blood, no foul? http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-60999 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-60999 Sun, 10 Jun 2007 20:02:56 -0600 Rita of The Blinding White Light she and her husband are a real hoot!]]> http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-60990 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-60990 Sun, 10 Jun 2007 14:05:11 -0600 Corporal M - my family still owns land out in Paragould. My mother's side used to be essentially headquartered there, and my Great-Grandfather was (I think) the first Mayor of Paragould. Then my mother married that Yankee soldier... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-60986 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-60986 Sun, 10 Jun 2007 11:57:04 -0600 Very amusing! A big majority of those can apply to my home area of NE Arkansas. Just substitute highway 63 or future I-555 for any NWA road. Or Nettleton Ave if you want to get specific to Jonesboro. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-60985 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/06/helpful_hints_f.html#comment-60985 Sun, 10 Jun 2007 11:34:14 -0600
