It was Day 3 of our “Wild, Wacky Adventure” to Arkansas and Oklahoma. You can click here to see our complete trip itinerary.

The original plan was to see the University of Arkansas and then head to Oklahoma. Since we had driven around the college the previous evening, we had extra time in the morning to do some more exploring.

I read all about the Wal-Mart Museum and decided it would be fun to see since it was small and only took about 1/2 hour.

But then I realized the Wal-Mart Museum was close to the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. I read that it was great to see not only for art, but for its architecture – similar to the Getty Museum in L.A. When I found out it was free (thanks to the Sam Walton family), I felt we had no excuse not to visit.  We’d go and stay about 30 minutes. Well an hour and a half later, we finally left and I’m so glad we visited it! (more…)
