Day 1 of Preserve Arkansas Annual Conference in nifty Hot Springs. Did you know Hot Springs National Park is the oldest federally protected reserve in the US? It predates Yellowstone National Park by 40 years. Spring MLB ⚾ got its start here! See that punching bag? Babe Ruth came to this gym often. Such great history here !

No insights to offer today.  Nor care to make any comments.    Sometimes just need to pause and reflect.

When that small project comes along that gives you an excuse to get out the old paraline bar, triangles and lead pointers... you're seeing several layers of tracing paper over a scaled drawing of an existing 1980's (and hideous) barrel vaulted entry at a home in Little Rock. Experimenting with a new classical entry with an English Regency covered entry.

This man, John Gaisford, and his wife Waneta and daughter Helen. The photo, probably taken in 1915 just before Waneta would succumb to sickness. He would design a number of prominent buildings in Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi before dying in 1918, leaving poor Helen an orphan. Look forward to talking about him in Savannah, GA this week at the Southeast Chapter of the Society of Architectural Historians.

Lakeport Plantation Museum is expert restoration. A project I was so proud to be a part of while working WER Architects. One of many highlights was the restoration of the original window in the gable of the pediment. Using traditional tools and a combination of dutchmen and , the indefatigable Ronnie Walker brought it back to life. Here are photos showing the process from start to finish. Enjoy!
