Maybe it was Vic Dana in the 60s, or the Lettermen with their ballad, or the Kinks with their song !  

“….each kiss is magic that makes my little world a Shangri-La ….”  or  “….you can go outside and polish your car. Or sit by the fire in your Shangri-La …”

Whichever is your memory, we want to make it come true on the May Arkansas Miata Club drive !

Webster defines Shangra-La as “….a remote usually idyllic hideaway….”

Now that sounds like the interior of my Miata as we’re zipping down country roads and around curve after curve ……..

We’ll meet on Saturday morning, May 17th at the Shell Station on Hwy 10 and Chenal Parkway. After a cruise through the Arkansas countryside, we’ll end up at Shangra-La, a premier destination for relaxation, adventure, and unforgettable memories.  And we’ll have a wonderful lunch together at the Shangri-La Café – comfort food with a view in Mt. Ida. Nestled within the lodge and restaurant, they serve up delicious home-cooked meals and desserts that will make you feel right at home. And no visit to Shangri-La Café is complete without a slice of their famous homemade pie. Baked fresh daily, these pies are legendary among locals and visitors alike. Once you take a bite, you’ll understand why people say, “Stick a fork in that pie to save it for me!”

We’ll play trip poker on the road, so make sure to bring $ 5 for each player …..
