Let me tell you why we were heading to Arkansas.
Our journey up until now hasn’t included any events. So Zach signed up for an EUC Event called Amped Electric Games in Bentonville, Arkansas.
We had about a month to get there, so here is what we did from Springfield, Missouri to Bentonville, Arkansas!
Reason #1 for Heading to Arkansas
Our first stop was to see Zach’s parents in Arkansas. We parked close by to them and a bunch of other things we could see while we were there.
We visited this little town, Alma, hoping to find the World’s Largest Spinach Can, but unfortunately it had been painted over. I didn’t find an explanation as to why it was painted over, or that it even had been painted over. So I’m glad we stopped by!
But we did find this gem of a park 🙂

While we were in Popeye’s Garden, we noticed this across the street, so we needed to investigate.
Turns out it is a memorial to Henry D Humphrey. He was on Patrol as the Town Marshall overnight when he was shot and killed by Bonnie & Clyde.
We spent a good amount of time in Alma while we were in the area. Checking out the local stores and stuff. We found a super awesome supply, craft, hardware, pretty much a little bit of everything store called A To Z. And they are not lying, they have everything from A to Z !!
Just outside of Alma, in Fort Smith, Arkansas, is this cute little guy.
The World’s Largest Christmas Pickle! The water tower next to it was painted really pretty as well 
And here is Reason #2!
From here we headed to Bentonville! It was a week away from Amped Electric Games and Zach was itching to get into the area to check out the trails. So we headed over that way early. I had plenty planned for us around the area, and I knew he would spend a few hours (daily) on his wheel.
Until Next Time….
