Bentonville

Since we decided to drive from D.C. to Utah this summer, we had to break up the trip. We stopped at my parents' in IN for two days and then in Bentonville, AR to see J's sister's family. Without Wal-Mart's presence, we're not sure it would be on the map, but with Wal-Mart, it boasts an amazing American art museum, a cute town square and beautiful trails. The highlight was the 3rd of July when the local (meaning neighborhood) fireworks display rivaled many municipal shows, followed on the 4th by personal fireworks shows, almost equally impressive. We loved catching up with Kim & Brian and spent lots of quality cousin time. See more photos by clicking on the Photo Gallery above.
