It is taking us a minute to watch all your videos and get caught up but I can't tell you enough how much we enjoy them. Our traveling days are over but yours are giving us so much enjoyment! Thank You!
Just fyi, y’all were staying in North Little Rock. Different town. Four quarter Bar is in the Argenta district in NORTH Little Rock! Across the River is Little Rock!
That is correct. Our hotel was on the Arkansas River across from Little Rock in North Little Rock. I could see the Little Rock skyline from the hotel window.
@@quackersnayou are correct. Arkansas is not the most consumer-friendly state. Landlords can get away with virtually anything. I have had more than one crappy landlord.
My son was a Presidential guard while he was in the Marine Corps. He guarded Clinton in Washington for 8 months and then at Camp David for 14 months. Then he went overseas after that and ended up in the Persian Gulf.
They have farmers market there that are great...several good restaurants. Only people that didn't know cousin bill were shocked at anything he might do. But he actually was one of the best presidents we've ever had. The only on to balance the national budgets since he did that as governor. You obviously have no idea what a real Democrat was...sorry for your confusion.
Wow...the abandoned house that's in your thumbnail pic is in my old neighborhood LOL!! I'd recognize that house anytime. It was abandoned even when I was a kid and I'm in my late 40s LOL!!
You took the words out of my mouth. I was thinking either the architect wanted the locals to feel at home or else it was designed to detract tornadoes away from the downtown area.
I love your videos so much. I was old enough to remember Bill and his politics and It felt like a better time overall for America. I used to consider myself extremely left leaning, but now I'm more center because the modern day left is insane. I truly wish we could do whats best for this country and our people. It makes me sad to see what we've become. Your wife is adorable. I really enjoy watching you both together and your adventures through america. I also believe in PETA (people eating tasty animals) as an omnivore.
I'm surprised that the state capital was closed when you went for a visit. During the holidays it's usually open during the evening hours so visitors can see the beautiful holiday decorations inside and admire how the exterior is lit up.
Another Great Video! I lived in the Little Rock area for a year ,I saw more of it in your video than I did when I was there. Nice portrayal of the city Joe and Nic.
thanks for doing Little rock. We were there in early Dec. 2021 and the capital was lit up for Christmas. We would go back again and stay for maybe 5 days. Also we saw more night life than you did. :)
@@MAA77723 it does if you take your time, new businesses and attractions have been added to the city along with just the nature it's definitely a lot to do for 5 days and nights
I’m from Arkansas and Little Rock is not all that bad you just don’t want to go late at night! There is lots of history that makes Little Rock interesting! My grandmothers picture is also up at the capital! Anyways hope you enjoyed your time in Little Rock!😁👍🏻
I was surprised at the city. However, I felt like I was there. It's nice when y'all walk around a lot. I can't. It give me the feeling that I'm walking with y'all. It seems that y'all had a great time. I'm glad. I can't get over a city being named after a rock.
@@JoeandNicsRoadTrip You're welcome. I've heard you say that. How is it being in a vehicle with someone just about everyday? I'm not sure I could do that. When you do tours without your wife, at least that gives y'all some time alone. Keep it up. Now, you need to find a sponsor. Make that money. Y'all might want to buy another house. 🤔
I LIVE IN ARKANSAS AND MY MOTHER N LAW HAS VOLUNTEERED FOR THE PRESIDENT LIBRARY FOR OVER 15 YEARS, CLINTON NEVER VISITS THIS PLACE... THANKS FOR COMING TO VISIT.
Thank you for this awesome video! I'm a skyscraper geek and I've always noticed that for a city the size of Little Rock, (metro pop. 750K), it has quite an impressive skyline.
I'm from Little Rock. I worked at Cafe 42. It's a restaurant in the bottom of the Clinton Library. I also lived in the area right by the Governor's Mansion onn 16th Street. Across from that massive Lutheran church that was in your video after you turned around at the front gate of the Governor's Mansion. That area of downtown is called the Quapaw Quarter. It's really nice there, but as soon as you leave that area (it's only a few blocks in circumference), it gets kind of sketchy really quickly. The area where the restaurant is that you guys ate at is called The River Market. That area is relatively new. Back in the 80s, no one went downtown especially at night. The hotel you all stayed at was actually in North Little Rock, which is a totally separate city from Little Rock. A long time ago, like in the 50's, it was called Dog Town, because that's where people would go to drop off stray dogs. The hotel you all were at used to be a Hilton and the steak house there used to be a Benihana. There is a festival every summer downtown called Riverfest and on the last night, they shoot a bunch of fireworks. The parking lot of that hotel is the perfect vantage point to view the fireworks if you don't want to spend at least an hour trying to find somewhere to park downtown and then pay to get into the festival and then to negotiate the crowds. I've been going to that parking lot since the 80s to watch the fireworks every year. Sorry for the long comment. I'm glad you all enjoyed Little Rock.
arkansas is my favorite place outside of my home state. mainly for the hiking in the ozarks and ouachitas but when ive traveled to little rock ive enjoyed myself. never really felt unsafe even at various dining and pharmacy establishments i maybe shouldnt have been at at certain times.
@@raymondlovett9828 id rather find myself lost knocking on a random door in the ozarks or the ouachitas looking for help than in almost any town on the west coast.
@@jonathanuhumphrey1509 i mean ya'all do have places like pine bluff and west memphis that make my town look like a daycare center. but lots of states have that. the folks i met in the moutains were wonderful and keep me coming back. just bought my plane ticket for december!
I’m a 52 year old bloke from London uk and I went America when I was 16 (west point military academy) only time I have been, was such a magical holiday I had with my parents. Will never forget that holiday 😢❤❤
I wish I could have shown you around. When you were at the Gov Mansion you were blocks from Villa Marre. The exterior of it was used as the main house in Designing Women. Also, the Gov Mansion exterior was used as Suzanne's Sugar baker's house. The AR capitol building is a scaled down model of the National Capitol. Little Rock Central High School is in that area of town too. It's where The Little Rock Nine were the first black students to attend the all white school. Did you know that AR is the only state that you can travel due south and different points around the state and travel into every state it borders?
Thank you for the interesting trip videos. Yes, Arkansas people are very opionated. They don't care what they say or who they hurt. My late husband was from there. At times, it was very embarrassing. We are from CA.
When you From Little Rock Iike I am.. And you moved to Atlanta and now stay in Minneapolis.. You quickly remember that Little Rock is a pretty nice place to live.. I shall return in a few years
@@JoeandNicsRoadTrip That's a good time to go there. I prefer autumn. You might want to check out the smaller version of the Golden Gate Bridge that goes over Beaver Lake. It's pretty cool.
Probably it was during Mike Huckabee's administration that the governor's mansion was in the news the most often, because it was a tripe-wide mobile home while the house was being remodeled.
The area around the Clinton Library all along the river, is crazy dangerous. The park (River Market Area) iss beautiful, but only during high profile events where there are tons of police around. you have to go much further into LR to get to the really nice areas, good shopping and restaurants are. That is where all the people are. Downtown LR is only full on workdays.
I worked in Little Rock for 14 years, my job was based out of the airport. Section of LR are real shite holes. My office and home base was on the west side of the airport, which is on the east side of Little Rock. I didn't live in Little Rock but commuted 3 to 4 days a week.. West Little Rock isn't bad, but it's not a city I want to live in, some of my family lives in west LR. Little Rock has a very high crime rate and murder rate, but it okay if you know which parts of the city to avoid..
I'm 64. Lived in LR a good part of my life. The hotel you were in is actually in North Little Rock, and that area looks good, but is not the safest area. The bad areas in LR are REALLY bad. Even nurses couldn't go into some areas to provide home health care. LR has one of the highest crime rates in the country. The good parts are very very good. The bad parts are horrendous.
You made mention of the trash along the River. Well it’s everywhere. It’s been everywhere since at least 1993; the year I moved here from MN. Never understood that.
Perhaps someday, you will travel to the city of Helena, Montana, from whence I came many years ago. If you like huge, Victorian mansions with giant yards and beautiful landscaping, then that is one city you do not want to miss. Look up its history and you will see what I am talking about. At one point in the late 19th century, Helena had more millionaires per capita, than any other city on the planet. Gold was easy to find and many people found themselves incredibly wealthy in a very short period of time. The many huge Victorian mansions, especially in Helena's West side Mansion District, are still there, looking over all of the down town area, which is called Last Chance Gulch. Thanks for sharing your travels with us and perhaps one day, you will get to Helena. But for now, Arkansas and Missouri will do just fine. Take care and safe travels to you both.
@@JoeandNicsRoadTrip So cool! I know you will love it there. Especially the West side mansion district. Don't miss it! The Victorian mansions in that neighbourhood are gargantuan and very beautiful. It is where I grew up and lived for many years. I do miss that neighbourhood. Lots of good people and the beautiful old Gothic and Queen Anne architecture is astounding. They do not make houses/mansions like that any longer, which is a shame. Let me know if I can help with anything. I can certainly direct you and clue you in to some very interesting places and ghost towns in the area, if you guys are interested. Keep on keepin' on, you two!
This was one of your very best visits to Little Rock. Loved the visit to Pres. Clinton's library. You r spot on that he's more like Republicans today as the Dems r crazy! Love your Clinton shenanigans remarks. Like Pres. Clinton more than HELLery -- what a witch. She wanted to run everything. No wonder he ran around! Love u & your lovely wife's comments on the Wyndham, very fair, pretty & seasonally decorated. Thought the grounds around Clinton library could be greatly improved however. RB, Conyers, Ga.
best advice to give, going to little rock stay away from anywhere near the Simmons arena area, and stay away from the areas behind the air force base, otherwise little rock is a nice place
Couple months later . Little Rock is going crazy on homicides crime happening everyday . This mayor has done nothing but disappoint . And it’s all going downhill .
That's every big city. Little Rock mayor can't control the crime if the police department is short staffed. The mayor has brought in many new and big jobs to little rock
YEAH I live in NLR totally different cities NLR is awesome little rock is a crime ridden fest hole... Agenta is the gem of NLR thanks for showing the good side of our little town
Arkansas itself is totally awesome....For any nature related activity it is impossible to beat, and then you have hot springs the retirement home of super famaus gangsters, plus the only diamond mine in north america so much better than those retards in cali
@@trumpsinsurrection9046 I did. It's a disgusting town. It's not even attractive anymore. Looks like it has violence issues and there were homeless people literally on every corner.
Little Rock is decent. Living here now and my family is from pine bluff/Little Rock. Very beautiful place. Pretty boring but it’s something special about that. I plan on coming back here and buying a house here but in terms of advancements its not the best place.
Yes, there is a parking lot, shared with the River Market and the public park by the river, that was seen under construction. Way back in 1952, I lived in a house behind the mansion.
Too bad the Arkansas State Capitol was closed. It’s very pretty inside. I took a lot pictures there when I visited. If you visit the State Treasurers office there they even let you hold half a million dollars. Nic could take a pic of you holding all that money. I was alone so someone in the office there took a pic of me holding all the money. Maybe the next time you pass thru you can visit it.
i am not a fan of bill or hillary clinton at at. however i was born and raised close to little rock in jacksonville ar. it was rare occasion for us to go to little rock because of the crime. we did however go to north little rock pretty often. there was a mall built there on mccain blvd when i was 9-10 y/o. as a teen we hung out a the mccain mall. it was a big deal to us teens. there was 3 stories tall and had over 140 stores in it. it was a good place to people watch. read in girl watch. the macain mall had a store called pfiefer /blass in it. in it there was a large department store. a girl that i knew named Wendy Ward that i had a romantic interest in for a while in the 9th grade, she told me that her Dad was killed in the construction of a store there.
I'am drawn to Arkansas, I've been looking at video's online and looking at houses for sale online. Arkansas looks beautiful for the most part. I'm a senior and need to live where there is shopping and doctors, but not in a big city. someplace safe from high crime, where I can live peacefully , I love the outdoors, fishing, gardening, church, etc. Can anyone give me any ideas where to look ? I love down to earth folks. I see a lot of homes online in Fort Smith, is it a good area ? Are there tornadoes there ? Is there a safer place from tornadoes ? Thank you for any comments 😊
Ms. Debra, I have lived here all my life in Saline County, Arkansas which is just 10 minutes south west of little rock. Unfortunately, the crime rate in little rock is at a high, and is not the safest place to live. However- Hot springs (Garland County) is full of any riches you could imagine. From beauty to bathhouse row, theres a lot more to do, and places to go in Hot springs. Including a couple of lakes nearby
@@trumpetplayyer001 thank you for commenting, I'll have to check it out.. what do you know about Fort Smith ? there are a lot of houses for sale there.
@@debrabutler9447 You're welcome. Unfortunately I dont know a whole lot about the north west corner of the state, but what i do know is that its situated in one of the most scenic parts of the state. but with it being in proximity to fayetteville, there is a lot of college towns and such in the area. but its also a very well kept area, and is in a way more advanced than the little rock metro area. its a good place to go
@@trumpetplayyer001 thank you again, Arkansas looks beautiful. I was born in NC and love the outdoors and country style of life. beans and cornbread kinda person, lol.. Merry Christmas !
@@debrabutler9447 I'm late to the party but I would not move to fort Smith. There is quite a bit of crime there. Anywhere from 20 mi north of fort Smith and up through Joplin Missouri is pretty darn cool
I love that you came to my hometown, I really do enjoy seeing how people from outside of Arkansas experience and perceive our small city. With that's said though, I would be remissed if I didn't at least address some of your commentary. There is nothing "ultra Left" about our politics today. There is nothing truly "left" about our politics at all. Nobody is advocating for the abolition of capital, or private enterprise; all politicians in the established American political system are categorically right wing, to varying degrees. We are an extremely right wing country. P s. North Little Rock is a completely seperate ciry; the Wyndam and Four Quarter are both in the Argenta District of North Little Rock. If i could have given you recommendations, i wpuldve suggested going to Hillcrest and the Heights, especially during Saturday and Sunday mornings/afternoons (downtown doesnt really kick off until about 6 or 7). Midtown is also a great spot, just to tour the UALR campus, and do some light shopping.
you didn't attend the clan meeting @ capital after sunset?we toasted marshmallows on our burning cross& drank moonshine! Good times! you didn't catch the blue stain dress down at the Arkansas game & fish commission museum it's in the split tail beaver section
@@rackss1661 you guy's should have to west little also,you were in the down town are and in any city it's not the best,so if you come back leave the down town area
I love your great video so much.but you have no video on governors mansion inside and pres.clinton childhood house..but its ok i like the content. Mabuhay!.
I hate HATE HATE those stupid new houses, who thought it was a good idea to put them next to beautiful victorians, I don't wanna see any of those close to my house

Enjoyed watching the video and getting to know this beautiful city! Loved the reaction from your wife when you agreed with her on the hotel rating.
Little Rock has slightly sloped ground. There's dense vegetation all over and it positively revealed all the beauty and peacefulness of Arkansas.
Calling the Rivermarket a train station hurt my soul a little 😅
right? just drove right on by it lol

So sad
Clinton Library looks like a cheap mobile home on stilts…! And yea the very top of it… is Bill’s living quarters when in town
You took the words out of my mouth. I was thinking either the architect wanted the locals to feel at home or else it was designed to detract tornadoes away from the downtown area.

We'll be visiting Helena and other Montana cities this summer. :)
@@JoeandNicsRoadTrip So cool! I know you will love it there. Especially the West side mansion district. Don't miss it! The Victorian mansions in that neighbourhood are gargantuan and very beautiful. It is where I grew up and lived for many years. I do miss that neighbourhood. Lots of good people and the beautiful old Gothic and Queen Anne architecture is astounding. They do not make houses/mansions like that any longer, which is a shame. Let me know if I can help with anything. I can certainly direct you and clue you in to some very interesting places and ghost towns in the area, if you guys are interested. Keep on keepin' on, you two!
This was one of your very best visits to Little Rock. Loved the visit to Pres. Clinton's library. You r spot on that he's more like Republicans today as the Dems r crazy! Love your Clinton shenanigans remarks. Like Pres. Clinton more than HELLery -- what a witch. She wanted to run everything. No wonder he ran around! Love u & your lovely wife's comments on the Wyndham, very fair, pretty & seasonally decorated. Thought the grounds around Clinton library could be greatly improved however. RB, Conyers, Ga.
best advice to give, going to little rock stay away from anywhere near the Simmons arena area, and stay away from the areas behind the air force base, otherwise little rock is a nice place
Couple months later . Little Rock is going crazy on homicides crime happening everyday . This mayor has done nothing but disappoint . And it’s all going downhill .
That's every big city. Little Rock mayor can't control the crime if the police department is short staffed. The mayor has brought in many new and big jobs to little rock
All presidential libraries charge but Clinton library do have free days
YEAH I live in NLR totally different cities NLR is awesome little rock is a crime ridden fest hole... Agenta is the gem of NLR thanks for showing the good side of our little town
Arkansas itself is totally awesome....For any nature related activity it is impossible to beat, and then you have hot springs the retirement home of super famaus gangsters, plus the only diamond mine in north america
so much better than those retards in cali
only texas can compare and that is only because they have mexico
Yeah I said the quite part out loud... if we had mexico we would be the best state in the union
hook em horns
I mean go hogs
Arkies and texas boys run in packs lol
How do you decide your route?
Literally, I just look at a map of the US and say, "Here's where we're going next". :)
A few weekends ago, Little Rock had 13 shootings. Keep your head on a swivel!
One of the highest crime cities in the whole country.
It's not that bad! We still have country clubs AND tupperware parties! Just bring your 9mm with your 9 iron 😁
If u don't like it leave
@@trumpsinsurrection9046 I did.
@@trumpsinsurrection9046 I did. It's a disgusting town. It's not even attractive anymore. Looks like it has violence issues and there were homeless people literally on every corner.
What is that music at the start of this Littleton trip?
Wish you would’ve gone to west little rock but I understand the down town part
We did. We visited a bar in West Little Rock. :)
Little Rock is decent. Living here now and my family is from pine bluff/Little Rock. Very beautiful place. Pretty boring but it’s something special about that. I plan on coming back here and buying a house here but in terms of advancements its not the best place.
Yall should have visited Central High School where the Little Rock Nine attended.
I was born in LR and grew up there, 25th and Oak street. still live close to it.
Ayyy shout out lil rock. LR born and raised
501 Baby 💪🏾
Arkansas gang here 🤍
Me T00, Salute Gang!
does the clinton library even have a parking lot, only seen the circle part to drop people off
Yes, there is a parking lot, shared with the River Market and the public park by the river, that was seen under construction.
Way back in 1952, I lived in a house behind the mansion.
Should have tried Rose Motel in Prothro Juntion,NLR🤔😉
501 ❤️
Is Monica's BLUE DRESS in the library?
Too bad the Arkansas State Capitol was closed. It’s very pretty inside. I took a lot pictures there when I visited. If you visit the State Treasurers office there they even let you hold half a million dollars. Nic could take a pic of you holding all that money. I was alone so someone in the office there took a pic of me holding all the money. Maybe the next time you pass thru you can visit it.
You didn’t go hunting for the Fouke Monster?
The gate was put up to keep him in
i am not a fan of bill or hillary clinton at at. however i was born and raised close to little rock in jacksonville ar. it was rare occasion for us to go to little rock because of the crime. we did however go to north little rock pretty often. there was a mall built there on mccain blvd when i was 9-10 y/o. as a teen we hung out a the mccain mall. it was a big deal to us teens. there was 3 stories tall and had over 140 stores in it. it was a good place to people watch. read in girl watch. the macain mall had a store called pfiefer /blass in it. in it there was a large department store. a girl that i knew named Wendy Ward that i had a romantic interest in for a while in the 9th grade, she told me that her Dad was killed in the construction of a store there.
You didn't go by Central High.
If you want a tour let me know
Does that Clinton Library look like the best in manufactured housing? Must be a single-wide.
It's supposed to be a dong.
@@SBJohnson86 Doubtful. From the observation of past women witnesses, way too large.
It's an ugly building.
It looks like a stapler!
Huckabee had the double or triple-wide as a governor's mansion. Wonder what Sarah will have... Marred-a-Lego?
Nice videos,, but I see who is the brains of this operation. Hint!! Your wife is awesome
I'am drawn to Arkansas, I've been looking at video's online and looking at houses for sale online. Arkansas looks beautiful for the most part. I'm a senior and need to live where there is shopping and doctors, but not in a big city. someplace safe from high crime, where I can live peacefully , I love the outdoors, fishing, gardening, church, etc. Can anyone give me any ideas where to look ? I love down to earth folks. I see a lot of homes online in Fort Smith, is it a good area ? Are there tornadoes there ? Is there a safer place from tornadoes ? Thank you for any comments 😊
Ms. Debra, I have lived here all my life in Saline County, Arkansas which is just 10 minutes south west of little rock. Unfortunately, the crime rate in little rock is at a high, and is not the safest place to live. However- Hot springs (Garland County) is full of any riches you could imagine. From beauty to bathhouse row, theres a lot more to do, and places to go in Hot springs. Including a couple of lakes nearby
@@trumpetplayyer001 thank you for commenting, I'll have to check it out.. what do you know about Fort Smith ? there are a lot of houses for sale there.
@@debrabutler9447 You're welcome. Unfortunately I dont know a whole lot about the north west corner of the state, but what i do know is that its situated in one of the most scenic parts of the state. but with it being in proximity to fayetteville, there is a lot of college towns and such in the area. but its also a very well kept area, and is in a way more advanced than the little rock metro area. its a good place to go
@@trumpetplayyer001 thank you again, Arkansas looks beautiful. I was born in NC and love the outdoors and country style of life. beans and cornbread kinda person, lol.. Merry Christmas !
@@debrabutler9447 I'm late to the party but I would not move to fort Smith. There is quite a bit of crime there. Anywhere from 20 mi north of fort Smith and up through Joplin Missouri is pretty darn cool
Barbie. Did the Lady Spoda have Barbie's deluxe blue convertible Ford Mustang? LOL
The hotel Marriott is. built on an old silver mine. found when. Building the basement from I was told.
I love that you came to my hometown, I really do enjoy seeing how people from outside of Arkansas experience and perceive our small city.
With that's said though, I would be remissed if I didn't at least address some of your commentary.
There is nothing "ultra Left" about our politics today. There is nothing truly "left" about our politics at all. Nobody is advocating for the abolition of capital, or private enterprise; all politicians in the established American political system are categorically right wing, to varying degrees. We are an extremely right wing country.
P s. North Little Rock is a completely seperate ciry; the Wyndam and Four Quarter are both in the Argenta District of North Little Rock. If i could have given you recommendations, i wpuldve suggested going to Hillcrest and the Heights, especially during Saturday and Sunday mornings/afternoons (downtown doesnt really kick off until about 6 or 7). Midtown is also a great spot, just to tour the UALR campus, and do some light shopping.
Did u go on 12th street ?
you didn't attend the clan meeting @ capital after sunset?we toasted marshmallows on our burning cross& drank moonshine! Good times!
you didn't catch the blue stain dress down at the Arkansas game & fish commission museum it's in the split tail beaver section
Seriously.? That actually happened.?
@@tylerdurden4618 no just joking 😃
@tyler durden no probably not, he's got jokes.
Think you’re confusing LR with Harrison.
if you only knew how deep in the hood you were 😀
It makes sense the clinton library is built like a trailer house.
A lot of us who live in Arkansas call it the Clinton double wide.
Trailers doesn’t represent Arkansas at all nor our history just like gangs and homeless dumping areas don’t represent California.
@@rackss1661 you guy's should have to west little also,you were in the down town are and in any city it's not the best,so if you come back leave the down town area
If you're from Arkansas....
You gotta goooo
I love your great video so much.but you have no video on governors mansion inside and pres.clinton childhood house..but its ok i like the content.
Mabuhay!.
The Bill Clinton Library and Massage Parlor.
Yes, he was a frequent guest on Epstein Island.
I’m guessing the library gets little use. Not to be confused with Clinton library which should be a prison for both of them.
That's the old train bridge
Trumps library will be full of kindergarten books. 😄😄😄😄
y’all should’ve gone to the heights and out west. downtown is super boring ngl. also y’all needed to get some cheesedip!
You didn't go to the capital
It was closed the days we were there. We will be returning.
🤗👍🏾
I hate HATE HATE those stupid new houses, who thought it was a good idea to put them next to beautiful victorians, I don't wanna see any of those close to my house
