In 1954, Brown vs. Board of Education declared tha

In 1954, Brown vs. Board of Education declared that state laws segregating schools were unconstitutional. And in 1957, nine black students, called the Little Rock Nine, were selected to attend Little Rock Central High School, an all white school.

Their attendance was met with great challenges, as they battled the governor trying to prevent them from entering the school, as well as an uproar from the community and horrible treatment from other students.

However, despite the difficulty, the only senior student among the Little Rock Nine, Ernest Green, graduated from Central High that year and the entire The Little Rock Nine have been widely recognized for their role in helping integrate schools nationally.

We shared a little bit more about this on yesterday’s vlog, but we highly recommend watching a docuseries called “Eyes on the Prize'' and the episode they have on the Little Rock Nine. You can watch it on Amazon for $3. They share so much more detail on what happened before, during, and after the Little Rock Nine.

Walking around the campus and visiting the small museum in the Visitor Center was such an impactful and eye opening experience. If you're visiting Little Rock, this is a must-visit stop to learn and see some of the country's important history.

Our Little Rock, Arkansas vlog is LIVE!

We only had 24 hours in the city, but we tried to see as much as we possibly could, including a sunset hike up the gorgeous Pinnacle Mountain, wandering around downtown, visiting Central High, eating one of the local delicacies, and more! The day "rocked" (sorry, we had to! 😜) and we hope y'all enjoy this final non-Texas adventure for 2020!

If you search for trails in Arkansas on @AllTrails

If you search for trails in Arkansas on @AllTrails, Whitaker Point (also called Hawksbill Crag), comes up as the #1 hike in the state. While we tend to prefer the more off the beaten path spots, we also like to see the iconic places when we explore. So we knew we had to check out this hike while in Arkansas!

But between whiteout conditions on the drive to the trailhead and the fear of driving our van on the sketchy road (as we had read in reviews), we almost bailed on this hike. But as we approached the gravel road (which wasn't bad at all if you approach from Highway 16), the sun started to pop out of the fog a bit and we figured we might as well give it a shot.

And we're glad we did! At only 3 miles round trip, very minimal elevation gain, and great views, this hike is really popular. Even on a Monday, the trail was a bit busier than we'd like and Adam may have had to wait in a small line to get this photo, but it was worth it!

Note to my mom and aunt: this rock is much wider than it appears! 😉

If you're visiting NW Arkansas, you MUST visit the

If you're visiting NW Arkansas, you MUST visit the Buffalo National River! This popular area is absolutely gorgeous and is home to so many trails and activities. But did you know that....⬇️

🇺🇸 The Buffalo National River was the FIRST National River in the United States and is 135 miles long.
🏞 It's home to both the tallest sheer bluff face and the tallest waterfall found between the Rocky and Appalachian mountains.
🦌 The area is home to Arkansas's only herd of elk, which reside in Boxley Valley. These were originally Eastern Elk, but after going extinct, they replaced them with Rocky Mountain Elk and there are over 800!
🐶 Dogs are not allowed on most trails, so make sure you have a safe place for your pup to be while you hike!

After spending time in the Bentonville area and surviving our first mountain biking experience, we headed east to explore more nature in NW Arkansas! We spent a day road tripping through the Ozark Mountains and Buffalo National River, grabbing some delicious breakfast in a cool little small town, going on hikes, and stopping at sights along the way. This area is SO beautiful and has so many things to do and we hope you enjoy a little sliver of what it has to offer in today's vlog!

✨ NEW guides! ✨ And they are all about one of our favorite places we have ever been: Glacier National Park!

We spent 3 days in the park this summer and fell head over heels in love with the scenery.

Writing about Glacier and looking at all of our photos gave us allll the feels...this place is SO magical! 😍

Here’s a summary of each of the new guides ⬇️

We’ve linked to all of the guides in the link in our bio. We hope they help you plan an epic Glacier adventure for next year!

How it started ➡️ How it's going

Did you know that Walmart started in Arkansas? In 1950 a businessman named Sam Walton purchased a store in Bentonville, Arkansas, and opened Walton's 5 & 10 (photo 1). And 12 years later, he opened the first ever Walmart in Rogers, Arkansas, just down the road, which has now become one of the largest retailers in the United States (photo 2).

We sleep at a lot of Walmarts, so it felt very fitting to see how it started while in Arkansas. In fact, the second photo was taken after sleeping at that Walmart! #VanLife 🚐

For Adam's birthday we decided to try something he has wanted to do for a while...mountain biking! Bentonville, Arkansas is known as a "Disneyland for mountain bikers," so we figured this would be a good place to try it out for the first time!

There are tons of trails to choose from in the area, but we went to @colermountainbikepreserve for our inaugural ride (according to the locals, this is a tough one to start at...oops!) and while we 1000% didn't look cool and we struggled at times, we ended up having a blast once we stuck to our skill level. Have you been mountain biking before? Let us know your favorite places to ride!
