🌎 River Roots Goes Beyond Arkansas! 🌎

We’ve been traveling outside of Arkansas recently, but of course… We still had to explore! 😎

One of the places we came through was Transylvania, Louisiana, and this little Delta community has a deep history that goes back centuries.

From ancient Indian mounds to the story behind its unusual name, there’s a whole lot more to Transylvania than Dracula and Vampires! 🧛‍♂️

We had to stop, explore, and dig into the story. That’s what River Roots is all about, finding the history and stories hiding in the places we travel through.

🎥 We’ll be posting the full Transylvania, Louisiana history video right here this Sunday!

Be sure to watch for it! 👀

🌅 Dinner on the River 🌅

Dinner tastes better when you can sit outside, watch the river roll by, and take your time. 🥩🔥🌊

No rushing. No crowded restaurants. Just a good meal, cold drinks, warm lights, and the people you enjoy sharing it with.

We’ve learned to appreciate the sweet, slow, simple life, good food, beautiful views, and making memories right where our roots run deep.

River Roots. 🌊🌲

😂 I think my game cam location might’ve officially been busted!

I checked the camera and apparently the deer have started holding secret meetings at my spot. 🦌😂

The buck is standing there like, “Alright boys, this is where the camera is. Everybody look natural.” 🤣

At this point, I’m not running a game camera… I’m running a deer surveillance program, and they know it! 📸🦌

Guess I better start looking for a new location before they figure out how to delete the SD card. 😂

River Roots, where even the deer know they’re on camera!

☀️ Good Monday Morning from River Roots! 🌾🐓

Starting this Monday with a little country life update… Meet Herman the Rooster! 🐓❤️

This little fella is growing like a w**d and seems to be getting bigger, stronger, and a little more full of personality every single day! 😂

It’s amazing how the simple things like raising animals, working the land, and watching them grow, can make you slow down and appreciate life a little more.

Here’s to a blessed Monday, a fresh start, and another week of living life the River Roots way…

Sweet, slow, and simple. 🌱🌾

Have a great Monday, y’all! 🇺🇸
