From Little Rock, AR - Day 17

We are in Little Rock, AR. Yesterday we were in Joplin, Missouri. We headed to Baxter Springs, KS to see the Kansas border. We shopped at a Walmart in Baxter Springs. It was a cozy town. We visited the Precious Moments Chapel & Museum at Carthage, MO. The paintings were really amazing. It was so peaceful to walk around inside the chapel area with stained glass windows and wall paintings.

From Carthage, MO, we took US 71 South to Bentonville where we visited the first ever Walmart (called Walton's back in the day). We also took pictures by the Walmart Head Quarters. We also stopped at Springdale to take a snap of the Tyson world head quarters.

We took I-540 South and I-40 East towards Little Rock, AR. We are making some progress towards our final destination. We stayed at a Holiday Inn near Little Rock Airport. Today, we are headed towards Mississippi.
