Hot Springs:A Journey Through History

The Hot Springs Convention Center has collected dozens of pictures that were taken in Hot Springs over the last several decades.  The pictures were all displayed and we took the opportunity to get out and go have a look for ourselves! 

Wilma and Amber had to ham it up with this hand carved wooden piece of art in the hallway before we went to go see the pictures.


Susan was much kinder to the Great Dane than Amber and Wilma.

 A picture of a picture...who's that with The King??
Amber and Wilma stopped to look at the pictures of The King meeting The President.


 The Bronze statue was not part of the photo display, but it was well worth the walk down a long hallway to get a better look!


 As the proud home of President Bill Clinton, no photography exhibit would be complete in Hot Springs unless it had a picture of Clinton's inauguration in 1993.
Susan took her time looking at all the old pictures.



 Central Avenue in 1890- "A very crooked street in a very crooked town"

 Louise loved all the photographs!







"Bathe your way to health at Hot Springs National Park!"





This was neat!  They had framed one of the old Chef uniforms from The Arlington Hotel!




Who knew Jack Dempsey was a hero?


HAHAHA!



Mike is so prim and proper.   If only he was made out of wood...

Mike and Louise enjoyed the pictures of Babe Ruth in Hot Springs!

We had a wonderful time looking at the exhibit and look forward to our next outing together!
