A very quick post today. Here’s another shot under the Trestle in NW Arkansas. Happy hump day everyone.

This is all that is left of the Oklahoma Row of hotels in the now flooded town of Monte Ne, Arkansas. This tower is the only structure of Monte Ne still standing that can be seen at normal lake levels. From 1901 until the mid-1930s the Monte Ne area was a health resort and ambitious planned community, with hotels and [...]

Well it’s been too long since I posted a train shot, so here’s a new one from Rogers, Arkansas. They have a quaint little train depot and park where this old caboose sits. I just love the advertising tag line the side. Makes me think of the old ad campaigns from my youth. Hope everyone [...]

Sandra and I went for a small getaway to Arkansas about a week or so ago. Mainly we went to see friends and family, but I did want to shoot some while there. Unfortunately the weather and timing didn’t work out as well as I thought it would. Oh well, such is life. But I [...]

My wife and I traveled up to Northwest Arkansas this past weekend to visit friends and to visit the new Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville. We really enjoyed our time visiting, but I had very little time for shooting. The one time I got to shoot was on our visit to Crystal Bridges Museum. With [...]
