Sweet Memories

Charlotte's jogged our memories of simpler times and provided heavenly treats.

Pull Up A Stool And Sit For A Spell...

The backbone of Main Street, USA, the drugstore, in addition to providing pharmaceutical needs for the sick, also provided a relaxing environment. Many of us remember climbing up on a bar stool and ordering a cherry Coke or other refreshing drink from the soda fountain. Bells hanging from the door, rang as one walked through the door; alerting those seated on the stools that another had joined them for friendly conversation. It was a place to meet old friends or make new ones.

We were taken back in time when we noticed the old fashioned soda fountain pulls at Charlotte's. Life seemed uncomplicated at that moment as we reminisced and enjoyed the delicious pies and fellowship of our delightful waitress. Posted by V

Wow!!

What a treat after a long ride ~ caramel pie and chocolate pie at Charlotte's. The restaurant is one of the buildings in Keo's Historic District. Once a drug store, beautiful apothecary cabinets line the interior walls; a collection of tea pots have replaced medicinal supplies.

And Then There Was Pie...Delicious Pie!

Charlotte's Eats & Sweets in Keo, AR turned out to be such a treat. Charlotte's is no stranger to those who love delicious food, especially cakes and pies. The restaurant has been featured in Southern Living magazine on several occasions included in the article, "The South's Best Pies". Coconut, chocolate, caramel, blackberry cobbler were just a few of our choices. Gale chose caramel and I, of course could not resist the chocolate. Posted by Valerie

Good Things Come In Small Packages

We've all heard the expression and it rings true with small towns as we discovered on our recent outing. Keo, Arkansas, may be small in population, (approximately 256) but huge in hospitality! From the moment we arrived and stopped to ask if we could take pictures, we were greeted with a genuine kindness that left a warm imprint throughout our trip.

Cotton gins, pecans, delicious pies, unique antiques and collectibles ~ all wonderful finds framed by smiles and friendly faces of those who have the pleasure of living there.

Cameras At Rest

Our cameras were recently pulled from their shelves for a roadside trip through rural Arkansas. Pictures will be posted soon of a few of our most enjoyable experiences as we embraced the beauty, warm hospitality and kindness of this lovely area. Posted by Vee
