On the drive up to Little Rock (and elsewhere in the South), I saw many cotton fields with the product rolled up into pink bales. No photos since I didn’t want to pull over on the highway to take a pic.
I have a mixed reaction to the Clinton Presidential Library. On the one hand, the building is designed well, the displays along with the Clinton-narrated self-guided tour are informative, and the garden with its public art with globes showcasing artists’ interpretations of sustainability are beautiful. On the other hand, his impeachment was downplayed as “politics” with no mention of Monica Lewinsky and Clinton’s infidelity.
Following the library, I found Little Rock’s Trader Joe’s where most people wore masks.
Now, I’m at Crystal Springs Campground, part of Hot Springs National Park. It’s beautiful here! I’m going to try to get a good full night’s sleep so I have the energy to explore Hot Springs tomorrow. Plan B? Hike around this campground and relax a bit… Not a bad Plan B, eh?!
The Oval Room filled with reproductions including the Resolute Desk.
Cabinet Room. On the back of each chair is a metal plate with the cabinet person’s title. President is in the middle on one side with Secretary of State on his right and Secretary of Defense on his left.
Presidential seal – eagle facing toward peace.
According to Clinton, he had a good relationship with Mandela.

The library itself with one of the 26 sustainability globes, each created by a different artist.
