Hi to all!I wanted to share some pictures of my trip last week when I accompanied Steve to Hot Springs, Arkansas. Although the weather was unseasonably cool for two of the four days, I managed to find plenty to do. The purpose of the visit was for Steve to film some footage of their big season finale, the Arkansas Derby. Before this main event, I found time to shop at the many unique stops on the "strip", visit one of the nine historical bath houses (very interesting), gawk on top of the Ouachita mountains, retrieve fresh spring water from the five free water stations, enjoy reserved box seats 10 boxes down from Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys, watch possibly the next Kentucky Derby winner "Curlin" cruise to a 10 1/2 length victory, sample the many fine restaurants and hob-knob with the local celebrities at post derby parties, jazz brunch at the Arlington Hotel and make a quick stop to see the William J. Clinton Library before we hopped on a plane. Whew!
Also, looks like Sue and I are going to pass on the Football 101 this year. We still have great memories of last year's event. (I'm sure you know if you click on a picture, it was blow up quite large). Have fun in Lincoln, ladies!
