A couple of hours from me is this wonderful place called Stuttgart, Arkansas.
Duck hunter's HEAVEN.
Sure, there's good hunting about an hour north of Sacremento, CA, but nowhere near as big as Stuttgart.
This time of year--GOOD LUCK on finding a motel room and most motels have "mud rooms" at the end of each wing that has water hoses and extra towels. If you aren't in the lobby before 6:30 good luck on there being any "free" breakfast left.
Lots of politicians and company bigwigs reserve entire motel wings for a week.
The duck hunter's mega-store on the north side of town get's stripped bare...the duck call company next door has lines that go on forever.
It's one massive rice field 20 miles in diameter....for night life there's 2 bars for the whole town. The 2 liquor stores have literally nothing on the shelves after the first couple of nights.
The rest of the year the place is sad, boring, and most kids 19 and older leave and never come back.
