I SECOND YOU ON THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I spent a few years in the area back in the late 70's and early 80's and the chicken was OUTSTANDING then and it is still as good today!! There is also a pretty good BBQ place called HoBo Joes just outside of Lowell. I lived close enough to smell it on a windy day!!
Enjoy your trip, the weather is great this time of year!

Hobo Joe's was always one of my favorites, too, but it has went out of business and is now ........ a Pawn Shop. Such a sad end to a very unique business. The insides were covered with antiques, bowls, kitchenwared, they had a real old gas pump and some of the glass globes that fit on the newer/old gas pumps. They would bring out a plate of onions and peppers as an appetizer. You aren't that far from Ft. Smith, they have some nice places down there, too. Only 35 minutes away using the new road. Eureka Springs is only about 35 minues away, too. Great time of the year to visit.
