Pea Ridge and Bentonville Arkansas

Another National Monument...Pea Ridge Battlefield...very important in the Civil War...saved Missouri for the Union....great place to ride a bike.....like having the truck where we can just throw the bikes into for our outings.....Also went to the Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville....I spent YEARS collecting articles about places that I wanted to see on our Rv adventure...this was one of them.....Created by Alice Walton....town where Walmart guy got started...now I am not a big fan of WalMart's principles of business....but Alice did a great job on this museum....everything is free...including the audio tour....Just a lovely museum....hmmmm....seems i have said that before but this one was great....the architecture, the surrounding woods and river...the chronological layout with a emphasis on the history of the era of the pieces......If you ever find yourself near northwest Arkansas it is a must!!!
