Tiny Toes in the Sand…

So when I was a kid we never really went to the beach, we always would go to our family place in Heber Springs for a week, possibly trek our way up to either Dogpatch or Silver Dollar City for a day or two and that was our vacation.

A lot has changed, my folks have been planning this vacation for almost a year now, well … [Read more...]
