Farmer's Coop south side of I-30 eastbound. It is between the Congo and Hwy 5 overpasses.  Love the seeds and plants you find here. For all those who love chickens and want some, come to one of the swaps.

Hey my friends... Our little friend "Jasper" disappeared early morning on Valentines day and hasn't made it home yet... This is VERY unlike him, being that in 4 years he has never been away from us. We are in a very rural area, although some homes dot the area. 

Jasper is a Rat Terrier(?) / Blue Heeler mix, and he suffers from hip displacia .... But he is our baby, and we are at wits end worrying about him. 

Please, if you know anyone in the Sardis area, pass…

Not actually leave and not ever come back, silly! Who'd wanna do that?

Naw, these are the top ten domains* leading away from Arkansite.com in the last 30 days:

He lives right here in town, but he's been all over the globe. Sean Michel has a passion for spreading God's Word, and he does it well through his music. Over the summer, I first learned of a new project Sean and the band would be doing where they took the gospel message and set it to a blues groove. 

Yeah, the idea sounded a little off to me, but…

The Sleigh

Chapter 12

Previously on "The Sleigh": The boys had decided to move their base of operations to a spot near Messamore's pond. On the move, the advance lookouts, Wes and Wayne, rushed ahead to investigate the likelihood of getting the box past the barbed wire fence that stood between them and the pond. Having selected a possible site they returned to their roles as centurions and waited for the box to arrive.
