Eureka Springs, Arkansas

Over the next three days, I'll have a special promo going--ALL OF MY BOOKS WILL BE FREE ON AMAZON--so I won't be writing a Weighty Wednesday this week. This also includes my short stories, which happen to explain a few more things you might have questions about in my novels.

You see, it's my birthday, so please, please please share this blog on your facebook page, tweet about it, or google plus. Four square, LinkedIn, Stumblupon, Digg, etc. etc are optional since I don't play there.

Since my kidlet was at camp last weekend, the hubs and I took a short trip to Eureka Springs. Artsy-fartsy and very eclectic! It was an evil, evil day (Weight Watchers-wize) as it started with Krispy Kremes for breakfast, lunch at The Oasis (Arkie-Mex cuisine), and finished with 'dinner' at Andy's custard. Hubs had Key Lime Pie custard (they jam a slice of Key Lime pie into the custard and mix) and I had a Boot Scoot something or other with Oreos, fudge and caramel. Yep, good and evil. *slurp*

Here are the pics:

We parked near this. It's part of the B&B to the right.

The Oasis--1/2 down a narrow set of stairs
Very funky and eclectic, a throwback to the 60's
I sat in the orange chair near vault. This place used to be a bank.
the 'back room'
The toilet--sink behind door. Step up @ 12 inches. MY knees touch the wall--and I'm only 5'1"!

That's it for now. And no, I didn't find a pair of earrings that I couldn't live without. I'm totally bummed about that!
 
 
Later, Peeps!
