If you’ve been rained out from your normal outdoor activities (looking at y’all in the River Valley) then today’s feature will be a welcomed relief. Let’s still enjoy the scenery of the Natural State while sitting comfortably in front of a hearty dinner and a glass of wine.

Arkansas boasts a small handful of scenic train rides all throughout the state. The Eureka Springs train is our favorite for a short and sweet trip.
