Visit to Arkansas

Denise, a longtime friend from Julian, lives in Bentonville, Arkansas. Since we were only about an hour and a half away, we got in touch and spent the day with her on Saturday. After visiting and having lunch we drove past the Walmart headquarters
and visited Sam Walton's first store, now a visitor center and museum for Walmart. (Look closely on the right under the canopy and you will see Denise and I!!)


It is always great to see "old" friends and catch up on how the Lord is blessing. This sweet lady has been so faithful in serving the Lord in Good News clubs for children. I just know there will be many jewels in her crown for the seeds she has planted and in some instances cultivated over the 49 years she has been teaching!
We took a different route on the way back, a little more curvy and took about 20 minutes longer. but both ways were beautiful scenery and we can only imagine how beautiful it is in the spring when the leaves are back.
