This is my family's sixth trip to Eureka Springs, Arkansas. It is our favorite fall destination. It's within just a few hours drive of home, but a completely different atmosphere from central Oklahoma.
The city has a distinct Victorian charm. Sloping streets... antique shops... mom and pop restaurants... wooded areas everywhere. And solitude. This morning, Mary and I sat on the front porch and enjoyed the serene peace and quiet that is so scarce back home.
Every time we come, we fantasize about having a second home here. But even Eureka Springs can be on the pricey side. For now, we'll just enjoy the changing leaves and time away from the dailyness of life.
It's Del.icio.us!
Furl It!
