TORNADOES AND FLOODING HAVE BEEN A BIG PROBLEM IN ARKANSAS!

I don't know about the rest of America, but Arkansas has had some major flooding and storms! There are several counties, including White, that still have flood water from the March and April rains!

Saturday night we had tornadoes throughout the state! The wind blew so hard, and our electricity was out for several hours. Today, it is looking like rain again!

I have a party barge that I keep docked at Eden Isle in Heber Springs! The water is so high that I can't get to my barge. A friend told me that the corps of engineers said it would probally be the middle of August before the water was down! I won't be going to the lake this summer!

This has really been a tough year on Arkansans! We not only have had to deal with rising fuel and food prices, but the weather has been hard on us too! Farmers have had a hard time, losing crops they planted, and not being able to plant. When will it end?

Thankfully, we have a stable market in real estate! The Fayetteville Shale gas exploration has really helped our market.

Arkansas is a great place to live, and usually the weather is great! This has just been one of those weird years!
