**Though this started off as an April Fool's posting, the surprising amount of approval may bring this book to fruition. Eventually.
My job takes me to all corners of the state of Arkansas. And because that job requires eating and drinking incredible vittles The Natural State has to offer, it's also afforded me the prime opportunity to seek out and explore new restrooms and new situations throughout its 75 counties, including the most basic of necessities. Thanks to those miles and those meals, I've been able to compile an incredible list of more than 400 restrooms, bathrooms, rest stops and other facilities where one can relieve themselves across Arkansas.
The project, which should be complete in time to plan your summer vacation, will culminate with a handy book perfect for your glove compartment; a series of social media videos showcasing some of the best places to excuse oneself in each of the major regions; a newcomers' guide to the art of the sit-and-squat in our more rural areas; and a convenient app you can download to help you find all the best places to stop along our highways and byways.
