40th Annual Bella Vista Arts & Crafts Festival
Bella Vista, Arkansas
We are on our way..... Me and my sweet Hubby are headed out early in the morning for some well deserved R & R ... We are headed to the Belle Vista craft fair ! YEAH !!! Isn't it just like God to give me a wonderful husband that love to wonder around the far out fields filled with goodies and crafts and handmade soup and soap ! We both love to stroll and look! We just want to go somewhere and not have to think or be responsible for anything or anyone but the two of us! No big plans , just drive and talk and laugh ........ sounds like fun to me!
After the Belle Vista Craft Fair we are headed to
The Ole Applegate Place Arts & Crafts Festival. One of Ozarks largest gatherings of artists and
craftsmen. Set in the heart of the Arkansas Ozark Mountains, this is one of the most unique locations in the country for arts and crafts. The area is nationally known for its breathtaking fall foliage and beautiful scenic highways.
Incredible views of the Ozark Mountains and surrounding forest.

Have fun, my friend. I have been in Arkansas and drove the scenic road in the Quachita Mountains, but never if autumn. You are in for a real treat.
I'm looking forward to LOTS of photos. May your vacation be filled with love, laughter and the sounds, sights and fragrances of spring.
Blessings for a safe trip.

You are truly blessed to have a husband who enjoys those things with you! I know you will have a wonderful time. I am also a Neil Diamond fan. I went to a concert a long, long time ago. My hubby and I had our fall vacation last week. The 8th was our 42nd anniversary. We went to the mountains in WV. The timing was just right for the most spectacular display of God's creation. The colors were at their peak. I will be posting photos on my blog soon.
God bless you and give you safety in your travels.
Have fun! I don't know why I didn't hear about that when we lived in Ft. Smith. Oh well, I'm looking forward to those pictures. More importantly, I am looking forward to hearing you coming back refreshed. Could this break be somewhat overdue, perhaps? :)
Have fun sweetie, I am so happy for you.
I pray you have a fabulous, romantic trip!
Be careful and breathe deep!
Denise, God is so good ALL THE TIME have a wonderful trip ! Soak it all up , and be refreshed. Then let a little flow over to us... Blessings ROWANN

My blogging friend Julie from OKC had a post on her blog about going to this same place. How fun!
And Neil Diamond! I love him too.
I have had a gift certificate to Zios and it expires next month. I'm going to my daughter's to spend the night and we are planning on going there this evening or tomorrow for sure.
I'm happy you and your husband got to get away.

Okay, so now I'm really jealous. Is that a sin? LOL, guess I better go do some confessing. Seriously, ENJOY yourselves. This is a wonderful season, filled with yummy smells, beautiful sites, and MUSIC - oh my. I think hubby is taking me to the High Museum tomorrow - not sure. Can't wait to drive up to the mountains, either.
Tell Neil to sing Crackin' Rosie for me.
I love Neil Diamond.. showing my age.. oh well...
