  • We are in Arkansas, nestled in the Ozark Mountains at the Buffalo National River. This is part of the National Parks Service and was named the first National River in 1972. The location is stunning and the river itself is clear and beautiful!!
    We have found here one of the best activities you can do during the summer!!! Float the river!!! What is a float? Well, you get in a canoe or kayak and float down the river… the current does most of the work for you and little paddling is needed. Being on the river you will go between stunning bluffs on either side of you and see lots of wildlife. Get hot? Just stop and jump in the river! What an amazing way to spend the day!

    We got a puppy the fall before my husband retired. We quickly found out that although we LOVED him and spent lots of time and money on his training and wellbeing, it was very difficult to travel with him, or leave him at home. We ended up finding the PERFECT family for him. They had just recently lost their long-time pet and our pup was just the one to fill the void. That year we had 3 big trips planned and we just weren't equipped to give our little guy the time and energy he deserved. I think your little Pepper is the cutest thing ever, and I know why you wanted her and thought that she'd be a great traveling companion. Looks like you found the perfect pet family to share her with when you are away! 🥰💖

    I feel for Pepper. I believe in a couple videos we will hear. Well Pepper is so much happier with the people we dropped her off with so we decided it was best if pepper was to live with them. I feel so sad about Pepper. 😢

    Don’t feel bad about Pepper - you can tell J is conflicted about it all. It’s ok to do what’s best for the pup and your family. Everyone has their own opinions (especially on the internet) but yours are truly all that matters.
    So so so excited to watch the American road trip this summer! Some of my favourite vlogs are of you guys just chilling across the states! ❤

    Love y'all videos. I live in Arkansas, but my wife is from Louisiana and I'm right across the line in Texas. We are Cajun but have lived in Arkansas for many years. The best and prettiest part of the buffalo is on the other end near pona Arkansas. You really can't float it in the summer because it gets too low, but in the spring it's beautiful! Class 2 rapids and water fall, it's just great. Love watching you guys, have fun

    Floated the Buffalo and camped there as a kid, it still looks great❤️ I know Pepper is having a great time visiting friends and y’all WILL learn how best to travel together, although I admit it does cramp your ability to explore. We have a class B camper and almost 15 year old “puppy” that we have to consider on our travels. She’s a road warrior but at her age she tires easily.

    We lived off that river before moving to Alaska. We fished there all the time. The kids would swim with our wolves in the river. There are these giant blue butterflies that they loved that were on the shores in the spring and summer. Was my favorite river. Second favorite was the little red river.

      I agree. Dogs make a human bond from the get-go. When they keep changing hands, they will lose all trust in their owners. Dogs are not throw aways. Be grown up and accept your decision to get a dog and adapt your lifestyle.

    I'm not sure if you know this but you were right in the middle of our waterfall area. Northwest Arkansas has many waterfalls. Early Spring is our peak waterfall season. Do some research on it if you like waterfalls. You can pick up a Waterfalls of Arkansas book written by Tim Earnst with directions to hundreds of waterfalls

When y'all have time you too need to adventure to south lake Tahoe California and go to Cascade falls, the gondola ride at heavenly valley, take the MS Dixie for a ride on lake Tahoe. Then adventure down to Carson City Nevada and just see the beauty of Nevada. That is where I'm from. Especially in the winter time when we have a lot of snow. Love you guys. Coming from Indian hills Nevada.... The state capitol of Nevada Carson City.
