The Natural State



It's official, Arkansas has become my new residence! I knew very little about Arkansas which led me to do a little searching. Here is what I found. For one, its the Natural State. And it very well is. So far I've found it to be beautiful, green, lush and surprisingly hilly. After all, its the Ozarks! I can't wait to share pictures. In the meantime I leave you with a few tidbits on Arkansas.

Arkansas shares a border with six states: Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and Oklahoma

The Trail of Tears National Historic Park runs through Arkansas

The Capital is Little Rock

Its the birthplace of President Bill Clinton and the location of Clinton House Museum (Bill & Hillary's 1st home)

Home of the University of Arkansas Razorbacks(this is also where President Bill Clinton served as a law professor before becoming Governor of Arkansas)

The corporate headquarters' of Walmart, Tyson Foods and JB Hunt are all located in Arkansas' Benton County

  1. Very nice. I'm looking forward to the articles about local energy from a fashionista POV. Can't wait.
