Bath House Row in Hot Springs
That serene fountain is really 150 degree spring water! It was quite hot to the touch. Since it was 100 outside, there is no steam. We highly recommend a trip to hot springs if you are in the area. Hot Springs is actually a national park.
Muscles McHolladay
The third floor of the bath house museum was this cool looking gym. Jennie was ready to go!
Go The Distance
This is the view mid-way up the Peak Trail which, as the name implies, heads to the top of the hill. The trail is only about a half mile, but when it's straight up and 100 degrees outside, it could just as easily be a marathon. When J and I reached the summit, we took the elevator up the 21 story observation tower. Then we walked back down.

Gourmet Buffet? No. A Hot-Dog Buffet! Go Hilton!
In Hilton's defense, there is some sort of big girls soccer tournament in town and I think they are catering to that demographic...girls 12-18 or so.

Acadia = YUM.
One of our classmates suggested visiting a small little neighborhood called Hillcrest. She recommended Acadia as one of the better restaurants. She was right. Excellent food, reasonable price and great atmosphere. A+
President B. Holladay
I am sitting in the chair that the president sits in at high-level meetings. I think they call this the briefing room.
The Clinton Oval Office
Jennie and I darted out of class today to make it to the Clinton Presidential Library. No books, but a nice introspective into the Clinton years. This is a replica of the oval office inside the library. I forgot to take a picture of the exterior of the library and gardens....maybe tomorrow.
