It’s time to get out and about, and writer Jennifer Barnett Reed has a few suggestions for outdoor fun, including places to swim, zip, see a few wild cats and get a bit dirty digging for diamonds. Jeanni Brosius and I have a few more ideas for playing, staying, eating and shopping in Eureka Springs and Heber Springs. NWA has two new gems: the Razorback Regional Greenway and the Scott Family Amazeum. The Greenway is 36 miles of paved trails for pedestrians and cyclists. And the Scott Family Amazeum is 50,000 square feet of meeting and learning space with hands-on activities and exhibits. Perhaps you’re ready to create your own oasis … complete with honeybees, poolside living spaces and a television for year-round use. We’ve also got a few suggestions for easy-to-prepare food to serve at your backyard parties. Finally, we introduce you to two of the wittiest lovebirds I’ve ever met. They’re on a mission to help the American Cancer Society. The story of how they met is simply charming.
