Once I cross the state line into Arkansas (from any direction), I can breathe and think as the pace seems to slow just a notch.
I was born there.
I couldn’t get away fast enough.
I hurry back as often as I can.
Arkansas is where I go to relax, recharge, remember.
I’m headed there today.

I guess my happy places are all in books. ๐ I don’t much care where I am as long as I can escape into a book.
Talya Tate Boerner says
I agree. Books make everything better.

I love where I live, going home to Searcy is more about the people than the place. Neighbors change, but friendships have grown deeper. I’m glad you still come back to AR.
Talya Tate Boerner says
You live in an amazing place. I waved your direction driving into Little Rock yesterday.
