White Buffalo Resort

White Buffalo Resort, Buffalo City, AR

We made our first long road trip away from home in the new travel trailer! I picked the White Buffalo Resort due to all the reviews I have read online from all the trout being caught while staying at the White Buffalo Resort and fishing the White and Buffalo River.
Why we only fished one day is mind boggling. I caught 5 rainbows and a brown trout and my husband caught at least 5 as well. We had a great time fishing here.
We spent most of our days just enjoying our new travel trailer and all its features. I did schedule us in a few site seeing day trips to keep us busy. We headed into Mountain Home, Arkansas a few times and we visited The Wolf House, Calico Rock, and Blanchard Springs Caverns. It was the most beautiful time of year to be here with all the leaves changing into their fall colors.

Introduction

I’m Angela, the mama bear behind the Taste of Craftiness, Aunt B Creations, Aunt B's Cookin' and Nitty Gritty Camping blogs. I was on a mission to get out of a state of depression after my mother lost her battle with colon cancer. My mother had taught me the basics of crocheting, cooking, and baking. After she passed, I took up crocheting thinking I would learn how to make an afghan and start making tons of them for charity. The time it takes to get an afghan finished, I realized fairly quick I needed something else to fulfill my life. That is how my paper crafting hobby began. I found Marty Horn, a veteran who started Anysoldier.com and in his forums I found the Anysoldier Card swaps. We bought or handmade cards to send to each other to include in care packages we would send overseas to our soldiers serving. I decided I needed even more in my life, the depression over the loss of my mother was still too unbearable to be around most people. Our kids were just going into their teens, we were already starting late on getting a family camping tradition started. Better late than never! I bought a used 10 person tent on Ebay, we used it for one weekend out. It rained all weekend. The tent leaked, go figure. The air mattress deflated the first night. We basically boiled bacon for breakfast because we did not have proper cover. We learned a lot that first weekend out. We bought a Pop-Up camper before our next camp out and I found a few pop up camping groups meeting up around the nation. It took great courage for me to get out of the house and travel around the United States meeting other wonderful people with shared interests from all over the world at camp grounds in the country. The kids got older, we traded in the Pop-Up for a travel trailer for two. Learned that it makes for a scary tow in a real windy state like Wyoming. We traded in the Trailer for a 5th Wheel RV and a truck. I found this was what I was meant to do in my life, I found my calling. Things changed. Financial difficulties caused us to sell the 5th Wheel. And a few years later we bought a little fun Corvette and decided the next best thing to camping were day trips in our fun car. That ended. Heart breaking ending for us. This blog started out as a journal of our camp outs but has turned into my day trip journal and whatever else I can add. When there’s not a crochet hook in my hand, or we are not finding a fun place to visit for a weekend day trip, you can find me painting, reading, or playing outside with my fluffy Pomeranians.
