Delta Resort & Spa! (McGehee, Ar)

February 25, 2017 By Talya Tate Boerner 4 Comments

Delta Resort and Spa

I’ve been trying to get down to visit the Delta Resort & Spa near McGehee, Arkansas for almost a year. Finally I did! I was invited to visit and speak about my novel, The Accidental Salvation of Gracie Lee, at the resort’s monthly Girls’ Night Out event. And earlier on the same day, I did a reading in town at the McGehee Public Library.

I’ll say right off, the entire town of McGehee, Arkansas—the library patrons and Girls’ Night Out participants—REPRESENTED Southeast Arkansas in a big way. What an enthusiastic group of new Gracie Lee supporters. Thank you!

The resort did not disappoint. I was impressed by this mirage-like resort in the Delta.

(Disclosure: As a guest of the resort, I received complementary hotel accommodations, dinner, drinks, and shooting range privileges. As always, opinions are my own.)

Farm Art Friday: duck pit

Farm Art Friday: Duck Pit

Hidden beneath flat rice fields, duck pits are difficult to spot from the road. I climbed down into this one buried on our farm in Mississippi County. From inside, the view is quite different, the small space like a secret.

Happy Friday and good luck to all those participating in the world championship duck calling contest today in Stuttgart!

And to you Black Friday shoppers…have mercy. I’ll be watching football and maybe hanging Christmas lights.
