A Spring Break Adventure on Scenic Highway Seven, in Tweets.
My daughter Hunter and I are planning our research trip on this year's hot highway, US Highway 71 in western Arkansas. Last year, we tackled Arkansas's longest state highway, Scenic Arkansas Highway Seven, from the Louisiana Border all the way to Diamond City. Check out our adventure through the Tweets shared that marvelous week, along with links to the articles produced from our trip, and offer your suggestions on other highways in Arkansas we should tackle.

Fried Chicken and Pie at Parkview Restaurant in Corning.
I've been holding out on you. At least, that's what Grav will have you believe, and there's probably some truth to that. See, we know some of the best places to get fried chicken and pie in the state, and this isn't one we share much. But it deserves sharing.
This place is the Parkview Restaurant in Corning, and it's been around for generations. But because of its remote location near our state's northern border, it does not receive the accolades it deserves.
