So much starts on facebook these days. While posting on the Remember in Hot Springs site Brad commented how fun it would be to cruize Central like in times past. It grew into a plan and became a benefit. How could the police interfere with a benefit drive? In the fifties it was quite popular with my group to go around the fountain. By the eighties the traffic got so bad around K-Mart and Burger Chef that the city put a stop to it.

| Always nice to have our sheriff get out and have some fun too. Larry was surprised that I remembered what color his panel truck was when he drove it to Lake Hamilton as a student there. |

Yep, this is Arkansas..anything goes!
And around the fountain they went. We chose to drive to the Arlington and sit on the bus bench and watch. Had it not been a Razorback game night and a Friday night of the county fair there probably would have been a much larger crowd.
I was surprised that nobody put soap in the fountain!! I had my turn long ago and wanted to give others a turn.
