38-3

The Arkansas Razorbacks beat the Ole Miss Rebels in Fayetteville on Saturday and the fans went HogWild!



This seems like a huge win until you look at the Rebels record. They are pretty bad. they are 2-6 after yesterdays loss to the Hogs.

Thank god Ole Miss's record didn't stop this fan from Hogging out.

War Eagle

Here is a photo of the War Eagle Bridge and Mill in War Eagle AR.

Today marks the begining of the 54th Annual War Eagle Arts and Craft Show. If you have never been to War Eagle and you enjoy arts and crafts then a visit this weekend is a must do. If you are like me and really couldn't care less about this kind of thing you should visit this spot at any other time of the year. The mill pictured here is open year round. It sells all kinds of stone ground breads and grains and it is a nice spot to visit and spend an afternoon.

Explorers!

Today after work my roommate and I went exploring some land and a cabin near White Rock in the National Forest. It was pretty cool. The cabin was nothing special but the area was pretty nice.
Here is a photo of us crossing the creek on the property in a Toyota Land Cruiser.
Enjoy.

Blues Bound!!!

Early tommarrow morning I am off to the 21st Annual Arkansas Blues and Heritage Festival in Helena AR.

Here is a photo of Robert Lockwood performing during the 19th Annual King Biscuit Blues Festival in 2004.

The Arkansas Blues and Heritage Featival and the King Biscuit Blues Festival are the same event. The festival kept the KBBF name for its first 19 years but last year, on the 20th anniversary of the non-profit event, organizers were forced to change the name.

Eddie Armstrong, a life-long Helena resident, told me he has attened every festival from the begining.

Mr. Armstrong sat in his chair in front of the Delta Cultural Center all day that day.

In addition to the scheduled artists many street musicans perform during the festival. Some of the best music is heard on the street.


This is Willie Jones of Eureka Springs playing his 1936 National Steel Guitar in the rain on Cherry Street in downtown Helena.
Willie really rocked out on this guitar. I think I listened and photographed him for about 45 minutes or so. My friends finaly dragged me away to go see someone else perform.

Well I have said too much and I need to pack and run to the store before I leave so I will post again when I return from the 21st Annual Arkansas Blues and Heritage Festival Sunday evening or Monday.
