The roads between Oklahoma City and Little Rock, Arkansas were less than stellar, but we were delighted with hills and valleys as we entered Arkansas. and our stop at a mini-mart for our “lunchables’ revealed accents that were not distinguishable, but entertaining, as I tried to decipher their words.
