It's been a few years since we have checked in with our friends at the Alligator Farm & Petting Zoo in Hot Springs, Arkansas, so we ran up there Saturday to look around and pet some goats, talk to the lemurs, and hold a real live alligator... and yeah, it's always "worth the drive".

If you're planning on going to the Houston area for this July 4th weekend you have a unique opportunity to see the Battleship Texas at its current berth one more time before she sails away forever.

Back in November of 2019, we all found out about a historic house in Texarkana that is owned by the Baptist Beech Street Church. There was a plan to possibly demolish it. Then we didn't hear anything else. This past week the Texarkana Historic District Commission denied the church's request to demolish the house.

Did you see this on 60 Minutes last Sunday night? 60 Minutes! This simply continues to jump forward, almost faster than I can keep up with it and report it to you here. The UFO phenomenon is real, they exist, what are they, where are they from, what are their intentions? I c...

Seriously, I know I'm overweight, I also know that if I lost that weight the snoring problem might just cure itself. But let's be real, this belly took a long time to get here, it's not going away quickly, and when it's gone that may not necessarily take care of the problem. So, what's a boy to do?

This is just crazy! I never imagined things would have worked out like this in a million years, but it has, and I guess I better get you caught up.

For crying out loud... just say it, say it already! There are beings from other planets visiting the Earth and it's been happening for decades and maybe much longer than that! Okay, that's what I want them to say, and they are getting closer...

Where has this AirBnB thing been all my life, well, to be honest, it wasn't invented yet for most of it, but it's here now and you should take advantage of it. We did, for a guys weekend on the Little River just a little south of the Lake Greeson Dam.

Houston, we have a problem... Pentagon, we have a problem, World, we still have a problem. Everyone knows that there's much more to the UFO phenomenon than the Government is willing to admit, the problem is what and why? Over 60% of us believe that UFOs are real so when will the Government let us all in on their little secret? Maybe sooner than you think.

It's an annual tradition that makes me laugh-out-loud every time I see it, the WKRP in Cincinnati "Turkey's Away" episode. They just don't make television that funny anymore.

If it's been a while since you've stepped off into a good cave, or even if it hasn't, I would like to introduce you to Cosmic Cavern in Berryville, Arkansas. A good introduction to spelunking with more adventurous options available.

When planning our trip I asked my wife to find us a place to stay at the halfway point between Branson and Texarkana so we could have one more night on the road and break up the drive a little. She found a gem near downtown Little Rock that we had never heard of before, a Bed & Breakfast called "The Hornibrook Mansion, Empress of Little Rock," and it was fantastic.
