Bound for northwest Arkansas

Now that the squall line has pushed through Texarkana, I'm headed north on 71 for Fayetteville. I've probably made this drive 100 times as a student. I'll report tomorrow from the Political Animals Club of NWA, where Rep. Bruce Maloch and Sen. Gil Baker will talk budget and politics. Afterwards, I'll visit the David & Barbara Pryor Center for Oral & Visual History for a briefing before visiting with Chancellor Dave Gearhart. I'll then run over to Eureka to sit on a legislative panel at the Inn of the Ozarks, then I'll run back over to Fayetteville to speak at Dr. Janine Parry's Arkansas Politics class. Later tomorrow afternoon, Rep. Lindsley Smith will address the UofA chapter of the Young Democrats.
