Little Rock, Arkansas


Pulaski County Courthouse, Little Rock, Pulaski County, Arkansas. It's a beautiful building. Perhaps not as imposing as many more modern courthouses. It's a picture I snapped when I was walking through Little Rock one evening. It was one of the older and more scenic buildings in Little Rock. As it turns out, Little Rock is a friendly, welcoming place and, outside of being nowhere near the beach, is a pretty nice place to hang out. I still remember the waiter at the restaurant saying they had a special on pate, immediately bringing to mind tiny portions surrounded by crackers. In fact, he brought out a huge plate covered by what looked like slices of meatloaf! It was both tasty and, surprisingly reasonably priced. So, if you're ever in that neck of the woods, stop by Little Rock.

Birds Are Welcome in Little Rock


In this picture of Little Rock, Arkansas, we have the stately Pulaski House where the Pulaski County Government was first organized. The picture was taken from the little park in back of the house which had, nicely enough, two prominent bird houses, one of which is visible in the center of the picture.

Little Rock


Hello from Little Rock, Arkansas. The trees are blooming outside and it's actually quite warm and humid outside. I had a few spare moments and decided to got out for a quick walk around the block to snap a few picures. As I came back around the block towards the hotel, there was a big gang fight going on with Police attempting to calm things down. Mostly just a lot of yelling and histrionics. I stayed away from the crowd (basically ignoring them and vice versa) and still managed to snap my photos of the old architecture buildings, the wonderful flowering trees and the spring flowers without mishap. When I got back to the hotel, there were people out front checking things out. Seemed like quite the spectacle going on. I, however, decided I would head off to the lounge for a snack instead. Hopefully, that will be all the excitement for this trip.
