Letter from Catherine
IADVENTURE I once read that you should fill your life with adventures and not things, so you have stories to tell and not stuff to show. So, imagine how pleased I was as we traveled across the great state of Arkansas in search of adventure, to find we could do both!
Adventure abounds in this issue and we’ve got the souvenirs to prove it! From paddling the murky Arkansas Water Ways to get an up-close view of a land frozen in time to chasing incredible waterfalls, we’ll show you where to get your heart pumping. And, as promised, whether your adventure finds you petting alligators or digging for diamonds, there’s a trinket to memorialize the trip, don't miss Arkansas’ Souvenir Cities. Looking for a road trip? We suggest Osage, Arkansas. Nestled in the heart of the Ozark Mountains is Osage Clayworks, home to some of the most unique pottery in the state. We’ll also introduce you to three rodeo cowgirls, sisters in fact, who thrive on competition.
Continuing our profile series, I am proud to recognize the talents and contributions of select realtors in our community. These Realtors® set the bar for excellence and are committed to going the extra mile for their clients. Join us as we salute their incredible achievements and the passion they share for their profession.
This month, we also feature our annual Healthcare Specialties Guide! You’ll discover helpful information from leading providers and facilities, so you can narrow your search and receive the expert care you expect for your family.
As for my family, our son just turned sixteen! I’ve dreaded this rite of passage for some time, and while I may not be ready to let him go out into the world without me, I know he’s ready, and what an adventure it will be! Enjoy this issue of Do South® then plan an adventure of your own - see you all in May.
