The Natural State (?!?!)

(click on the pic for larger image)

OK... I had a little more trouble capturing the Arkansas sign as it's in the middle of a bridge going over the mighty Mississippi River and there's no place to pull over... and I was trying to impress the kids with the significance of the river they were crossing. But they don't really care about the size and length of the river, or about Huck Finn, or the fact that it's a dividing line of sorts (what's with the W and K thing for radio/tv station call signs anyway?)... to them it was just "Oooh... daddy! Look at the water!"

And what's with that state nickname?
