Happy Holidays from the former Hot Springs Used Car Parking Lot



This scene struck a special chord in my American heart. The photo doesn't really capture the true essence of the display. There was a pile of trash in the background that you cannot see, and notice the empty plastic cup on top of the No Parking sign. It was a comically empty and kind of dismal scene. This winter has seemed really menacing and dismal particularly in Hot Springs so far. The weather has been cold and wet for the most part. The used car parking lot was closed (good thing but has an empty depressing feel). The pub closed upon the sudden death of the owner. Downtown Hot Springs is somewhat void of livliness right now. But there's always the good ole home team try. I appreciate that lonely Christmas tree.
