I get mine changed at Phil Wright, just because it’s where I bought my vehicle at. I think it was 84 dollars and change last time I got my oil changed, that also comes with checking and filling my fluids and rotating my tires
Anthony Bucci
I got ours changed today at Take 5 Oil Change, I think it was $81.99 before taxes or whatever they charge, would have been $95 afterward, but he applied a coupon I guess and got it for $84.99.

I have lived in the Russellville area my entire adult life and have had positive feelings about this area. Living in allot of different parts of the country, I feel that Russellville is one of the better places to live. It’s relatively clean, the people are friendly (for the most part) and shopping options are good.
In recent years, I have read allot of very negative comments about Russellville. It seems that allot of people here have a very poor opinion of this city.

What people have said they love about Russellville
Brent Appleton
I love how clean the town is, Lake Dardanelle, lots of places to eat, and people are nice and friendlier than many places.
Jesse Johnson
I love the town and its downtown area. However, it’s disappointing that local businesses and events lack support here, yet there are complaints about not having anything.
Cristy Ables
I love that it’s relatively safe, less expensive than many other places, has everything you need, and is within 3 hours of everything you could want. I also love that Dardanelle is next door and that’s where I call home ❤️. Oh, and the nature stuff is pretty cool too I guess.
Kerra Ferguson I love how to community feels close knit. I don’t love how it mainly consists of factory work with little opportunities in career growth.
Chastity Smith
I love that this is my home and overall a good community. However, too many have stalled potential growth and opportunities. We need more entertainment for all ages, more higher wage opportunities for employment.
What people have said they don’t love about Russellville
Tina Louann
Needs to be wet… tired of driving for a drink … 🍸 😒
CA Douglas
Too many run red lights be careful. Crazy how they fight to keep alcohol and casinos out, but allowed marijuana dispensatories
Dakota Kirk
I don’t love that we need more things for teens to do! Most teens and young adults are on the internet so much because there’s not many things to do besides sit in the Walmart parking lot or go to a bar. We need more activities for the youth! I love that usually people are very kind and helpful.
Les Bellow
We need restaurants on the West side of Town
Michael McCullah
I love the small town feeling in a community that is growing. I hate the small town politics in a community that is growing. This community seems to have been held back by the politics and never has achieved its full potential. When I first came to Russellville, Conway, Morrillton, Russellville, Clarksville and Ozark were approximately the same size. Look at them now.
Lori Jostmeyer
Love that there is a gorgeous lake and places to fish. Would like to see more activities for families available. Would also love another place to shop besides Walmart. A target or similar would be amazing!
Steph Carter
How many people I see texting while driving and almost causing wrecks! Some of us have babies in the car ☹️
Angel Richardson
The roads suck, the highway department has gotten really lazy the last few years. Our road used to be decent but now they suck. I do love the beauty of Russellville and the fact that they are really bringing downtown back to life a little bit.
Darren Steele
I don’t love the lack of support for local businesses. Seems to keep allowing and advocating for corporate spots, selling out land and infrastructure that could actually be used for a business that is going to get some cash going into the local economy. Instead everyone just seems to be fine with fast food joints and coffee places, and letting that money go to some corporate headquarters across the country. You can either complain about there being nothing to do besides eat fast food, or you can try to support and buy local. You can’t have it both ways, and unfortunately Russellville doesn’t realize that.
Lisa Kilpatrick Connerly
We need actual restaurants not junky fast food and more places to shop. The roads are in need of repair. More open minded City Council members to bring in more business and larger retailers. I like there is no traffic and the hometown feel.
Josh League
not love – no good fast food restaurants
Carey Borne
Not love that they won’t let any malls come in.

This delicious zucchini bread takes advantage of all the fresh summer zucchini growing so well here in the River Valley of Arkansas. It is one of my favorite summer treats and a great way to use up those big zucchini you may have let grow a little too large in the summer lol!
What is Zucchini Bread?
If you aren’t familiar with zucchini bread you’ll be happy to learn that it is a type of quick bread that is similar to banana or pumpkin bread, just with grated zucchini.
Zucchini is the green cousin to the yellow summer squash and it is very easy to find in Arkansas. You can pick it up at many farmer’s markets, grocery stores, and most like your neighbor, lol.
In the past, I’ve tried other zucchini bread recipes out there but they were either not sweet enough or overly sweet, so I’m not afraid to mention that myself and my family have deemed this the best zucchini bread recipe ever.
Thanks to my dear Aunt Barabara for this recipe, I sure miss her, but always think of here when I make this recipe!
To some the thought of using summer squash in a sweet bread may be foreign but trust me here, you don’t taste an overwhelming squash flavor at all.
The zucchini is shredded so finely that you only see pretty green flecks scattered through the slices, but the squash adds much-needed moisture to this sweet treat that is super nice.
Just imagine a lightly spiced cakey loaf with a moist crumb and a nice crunch from some walnuts. To me, this loaf has the perfect amount of sweetness and it is a great way to use up all the extra zucchini if you are a gardener like me.
Do You Have To Peel and Remove The Seeds From The Zucchini For Zucchini Bread?
Zucchini is a tasty summer squash that has very mild-tasting flesh, with a thin green skin that is fine to be eaten.
There is no reason to peel the zucchini first before shredding it for this bread recipe. As I mentioned above, the skin is very thin and tender so it cooks fine in the bread and you’ll never know it is there.
I simply wash the zucchini well first and check for any damaged spots that may need to be removed, but other than that the squash is ready to be shredded.
The same goes for the seeds. Zucchini, if picked at peek size, doesn’t have very large seeds and they can be left alone as you shred the squash.
They will help add moisture to your zucchini bread. However, if you have a rather large zucchini and the seeds have gotten larger and tougher I do recommend scooping them out of the squash before you shred it when you need to use up the larger squash.
This Fresh Zucchini Bread will have your kids begging for more squash…in bread form!
Here’s the recipe!
Ingredients
Ingredients
2 eggs
1 cup of sugar
3/4 cup of packed brown sugar
1 cup of oil
1/4 cup of milk or water
2 cups of shredded zucchini
2 cups of all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
2 teaspoons of baking soda
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of chopped pecan or walnuts
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350 Degrees Fahrenheit and grease and flour a 9×5 loaf pan. It is important to grease and lightly flower this bread because this zucchini bread will stick if you don’t.
To a mixing bowl add the eggs, sugars, oil, and milk. Mix well until combined.
Next, add in the shredded zucchini and mix again.
Finally add in the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and nuts and mix thoroughly until there are no dry ingredients left unmixed.
Spray your 9×5 loaf pan with cooking spray and then dust it very well with a couple of tablespoons of flour making sure to get the bottom and the sides of the loaf pan coated well. Dump any excess flour out of the loaf pan.
Add the bread batter to the loaf pan and spread it out evenly. If desired sprinkle a few walnuts on top and place it in the oven to bake for 60 to 75 minutes. Start testing the center of the loaf at 60 minutes.
The total cooking time will depend on the thickness of your loaf and your oven. The loaf in my photos took 73 minutes to bake completely in my oven. It is done when a toothpick comes out of the center clean.
Let the bread cool for about 5 to 10 minutes then carefully remove it from the pan and let it cool completely before slicing to serve. This bread also freezes beautifully!

The first thing I would look for is someone that communicates. It doesn’t matter if it’s good news or bad, The homeowner needs to stay informed of what’s going on with their transaction whether it’s buying or selling
If I were shopping for a realtor I’d want one that I get along with.
Remember to interview your Real Estate agent. If all they offer is a sign in the front yard and MLS listing, you can and should reconsider hiring someone you know vs a true Realtor.
