    You know, the more I look at it, my eyes feel like everything is going to fall to the right.

    It's hard not to let the politics show (fish; :lynn lol3.gif ). Very cool pictures, but I can't get it out of my mind how much that structure looks like a trailer. eek7.gif

    lol, great picture spider! Yes, the multi million dollar structure does look like a trailer. Quite an accompishment for ARKANSAS to pull off. And if you live here, you know that this was controversal. Not because of the design but because of how they got the land ("imminent domain"), how they got the money (raise prices for other city services like the zoo and shift the extra revenue over to "parks" therefore bypassing any public vote), and how they cut other vital city services because Little Rock has no money (like 84 police officer positions which resulted in a overall crime increase of 28% while this got built).

    But hey! We got a Presidential Library!

    Not trying to spark any political debate, I just think it's an interesting shooting opportunity and wanted to share it.

    ps - my cousin bubba said we are getting running water here next month!!! YA HOOO!!!!!!

    So much for the myth the Dems are for the common people, heh? :)

    Nice shots, by the way. I like them.
