If he is not busy he will give you a tour and he is very funny and personable. He knows a lot about the house and is very respectful of history. I have taken everyone who has come to visit me to tour this house. It is really a treasure.

The trail is pretty and and nice place for a walk. I haven't walked the whole trail so I can't say…read moremuch about anything further than 2 miles in either direction from the trail head. When walking be sure to go early enough or bring a flashlight cause only the sun goes down you can't see anything. The trail is surrounded by farm land and it is nice to see. Once I was serenaded by some frogs that were out in the fields. They aren't the best singers but I am happy they still choose to sing. Another time there was a small plane flying around and he was so close it almost felt like you could reach up and touch the plane. There is nothing really fancy about this trail but I enjoy it.

Another scary narrow high bridge, the Helena Bridge carries US-49 across the Mississippi River and…read morejoins the communities of Helena Arkansas with Lula Mississippi. It was built in 1961 and was initially a toll bridge but is since free. It is a cantilever bridge that continues for an insane 5,204 feet and has a clearance of 119 feet down to the river with a single (narrow) lane in each direction. And believe me, when you're looking at that three foot concrete barrier and seeing that massive distance down to the water, oh my goodness. If you're looking for a frightening crossing, this is it. If you're looking for something a whole lot more peaceful, try either of the bridges in Memphis (upriver to the north) or the Greenville bridge (downriver to the south) or the Vicksburg bridge (even further downriver). I've now crossed the Mississippi on all of those bridges as well as the ones (south to north) in Baton Rouge, Cairo, Cape Girardeau, five in the Saint Louis area, Hannibal, La Crosse and two in the Minneapolis area. Woo hoo! [Review 2294 of 2024 - 359 in Arkansas - 23309 overall]
