Had to pause the video right at the beginning to say how wonderful it is to hear you compliment your husband. After so many years of marriage you obviously still find him “gorgeous “ and say it pretty often. You two seem to have a great relationship. Very encouraging and inspirational. I’m going to go compliment my husband. Thanks for the unintentional marriage counseling! 💕😉
Listening you talk about Oxford all these years, I never dreamed I would become connected to it. My daughter and her husband are moving there in April 2022. He accepted a position as an Anesthesiologist with the hospital in Oxford. We will be moving to Germantown, Tennessee from Oklahoma to be near them but not too close. I believe in giving the newlyweds space.
I so enjoyed seeing you and Michael explore my childhood hometown. I live in Texas now too. Brings back lots of fun memories. My brother still lives there and runs up and down West Mountain almost every day. My grandmother was a nurse at the creepy looking Army Navy Hospital. Holds a lot of memories for me. She used to take me with her to fill water jugs at the Whittington fountain you showed. For years there was open gambling in "Little Las Vegas." When my dad was young, he delivered groceries and liquor to Al Capone and Lucky Luciano when they stayed there. My grandmother's best friend's son, Dane Harris, owned one of the best night clubs in town, The Vapors. She used to sneak me backstage to watch Tony Bennett, Liberace, and other stars back then. We go back every other year or two and enjoy it so much. Happy that you and Michael enjoyed your stay there too.
so glad you got to experience one of my favorite places! you have to go back at christmas, it’s unbelievable. garvin gardens has a huge light show. the ohio club has some of the best food i’ve ever had. also, the bath houses & massages are absolutely worth trying. the clothing stores are also top notch!
The Garvin Gardens are really awesome at Christmas. It's only about a mile from my house and my brother helped build it. We take my nieces and nephews every year to see the lights 😊
I'm so glad I discovered your channel this year. You have become my favorite and you always do a professional job on any subject matter. I really enjoyed this travel vlog and am now considering a trip to Arkansas. Thanks Marnie for taking us with you on your travels - you are the best!
This is my hometown. It's interesting to see your town through someone else's eyes. It's funny that I have never gone to a lot of the places yall visited and I've lived here since 1988
Hey, my hometown too. My brother and some relatives still live there but I moved after high school to Texas. Still visit and miss the trees, lakes, mountains and friends.
I always wanted to make a stop in Hot Springs when we traveled from Ohio to Texas but we never did. Great vlog!! I now might have to make the trip to Hot Springs.
Hi Marnie, My husband and I have missed being able to travel for a while, this was fun and I so enjoyed the history and information you shared. I love all your vlogs and videos. You do a wonderful job. I miss your cooking and GF recipes, any weight loss ideas, actually I enjoy all your videos...thanks and keep them coming.
Hot Springs is awesome, we loved be in Texas, but usually visit at least once a year. The Wharf is a good place to eat and we enjoy a little dinner called the English Muffin for breakfast. We’ve been going for year and have watched the area grow. We usually take a barge and spend time on the lake. Lake Hamilton is between two lakes, Lake Catherine and Lake Quachita. At the dam where Lake Quachita and Lake Hamilton, the water is actually very cold even in the summer. There are very lovely houses on Lake Hamilton. We have stayed all over the place. We have not eaten there, but passed by many times, as it is usually busy, but McClards is a BBQ place that has been featured in Southern Living.
I grew up in Hot Springs, I live in NW Arkansas now, I still have family in Hot Springs. Really, enjoyed your video. When you grow up you really don't go to a lot of the touristy places. So it was nice to see some of them....lol
Hi Marnie, I enjoyed seeing Hot Springs Arkansas. The trail and views looked pretty. Loved that big dog from Texas bowing. So cute. Thanks for taking all of us along virtually on your trip. xoxo, Karen
Hi Marnie! Loved your vlog! I know that you have mentioned your quilted black travel bag before but what brand is your black quilted travel bag and what brand of suitcases are you using? I absolutely LOVE them! I did not see you list them in the description box. Thanks! 😁
I loved seeing Hot Springs. My hubby and I don’t travel much and I’ve never been to that part of the country. It was fun seeing it from my living room. I like this type of video. And all your others as well. 😊
Hi Marnie, We took a get away trip too, (stayed at the Armory in Downtown Bozeman, Montana). Yes, the businesses were all closed on Monday & half on Tuesday. It poured down rain (& it hasn't rained all dang summer!!!). We had issues with our food & service too, seems like a common thing that is going on. There is a Bar there that I hadn't been to since College (1986). We ate lunch there & I decided that Rick & I each needed a baseball cap with the Rocking R patch. The Bill came & my husband asked "Is this our bill"? ($93) She said Yes, each hat is $30!!! Needless to say, I heard about that the rest of the trip!! LOL I haven't been to Arkansas since I was a little girl. We stayed the night there when My Dad PCS'd to MacDill. I used to have a small green coin purse from there. 😘
Sooo nice you took us on your mini vaca! Hi Michael. My hubby and I watched all your financial videos and learned a lot from them. Miss seeing you! How about an updated video on yourself/couple? You both are great to hang out with~so to speak....!
Great Vlog!! Ohio Club is one of our favorites in downtown Hot Springs. We were not impressed with Maxine’s. Love the outdoor patio at Rolando’s. We have not done the Gangster Tour but we are going to go😃😃
I'm sad we missed out on the Ohio Club. Maxine's did not go well for us at all. The outdoor patio at Rolando's was so slanted that it made for a very uncomfortable dining experience! ;)
Hi Marnie, we really enjoy your travel vlog or any vlog style videos. Please do more vlogs please :) love seeing new hotels and other parts of areas in the US. Thanks!
Hi Marnie. I enjoyed this vlog. I’ve never thought about taking a vacay in Arkansas but it looked pretty cool. Beautiful mountains. I agree that the baths look disgusting and creepy. The Great Dane bowing was adorable. Thanks for taking us along. 😀
This is a fun vlog, Marnie! That bowing dog was so sweet. You were brave to walk that trail, particularly after the history you learned the night before.
I used to do the same thing with the astronaut ice cream and MY boys when they were little! The beauty and grandeur of hotels like that are so majestic.
I love Hot Springs! What hotel was that? I probably missed you saying it….we usually get a VRBO but I think it would be fun to stay near the bath houses in an old hotel!
I would have been weary of riding the duck boat tour after one went under there years ago and killed several people. We use to go yearly to Hot Springs Village when my dad was living but he has been gone for 12 years and I don’t think it would be the same without him. I’m glad you enjoyed yourself.
Sooo watching this was weird for me … 😂 I felt like you were spying on me. I was yelling at my TV explain what all the ‘creepy’ places that were trying to figure out were. I worked at the Arlington hotel as a teen. It definitely needs to be torn down now. Born and raised here moved away for 20+ years.

We enjoy going to Hot springs during the Horse racing season. Oaklawn Park has lots of history too. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for taking us on your trip! This was so fun.
You need to visit NW AR! Beautiful!, Float the Buffalo River and hike the hundreds of trails . It’s truly one of the prettiest places!
Sounds great!
So fun!! I love tours! I paused the video and read about the springs, which was fascinating! TFS!
Glad you enjoyed!

Garven Gardens is one of my favorite places in my former hometown too. Miss it a lot after living here in Texas for so long.
Marnie, l enjoyed this vlog so much! You really do such a terrific job showing and explaining your locations. I hope you do some more 😊
Thank you so much! I'd like to do more!
That was a neat trip. I liked learning all the history you shared. Thanks.

You need to come to Northwest Arkansas. You’d absolutely love downtown Bentonville. Crystal Bridges is an amazing museum you should check out.
Yes! Crystal Bridges and Bentonville is extraordinary! One of my favorite places in my home state!
Love your travel vlogs and this one is my favorite so far! Definitely the type of little trip my husband and I would take. Might have to check it out!
This is my hometown. It's interesting to see your town through someone else's eyes. It's funny that I have never gone to a lot of the places yall visited and I've lived here since 1988
What school district did you attend?
I was a home school kid
@@ataurus2at ahh okay. I homeschool my kiddos now. Born and raised here. But moved away late teens been gone for 20+ years.
Hey, my hometown too. My brother and some relatives still live there but I moved after high school to Texas. Still visit and miss the trees, lakes, mountains and friends.

Oh wow! I was born there too but moved to Texas after high school. I knew a Roy Keenom in high school. Are you related?
@@victoriaaustin2468 my father in law had a brother named Roy. Don’t know if it’s the same one.
@@LoriKeenom if he is the Roy Keenom that graduated from Hot Springs High School in 1970, he may be.

Come back to Charleston SC!! For a visit the weather is perfect this time of year
I miss you vlogs. Please do more.

Hot Springs is my favorite. I worked at the Buckstaff and the Arlington right out of massage therapy school. Bath House row is a favorite.
Love your Hot Springs visit. I am from Arkansas & we love it. Especially during racing season!

We were in room 516 when we were there Oct 30/31! Such a small world!
We also loved the Vault- also recommend the Ohio club for drinks and live music.
We first had the light up menus in Cabo and I am so easily entertained by them!
Hi Marnie, we really enjoy your travel vlog or any vlog style videos. Please do more vlogs please :) love seeing new hotels and other parts of areas in the US. Thanks!

You should! We enjoyed it more than we thought we would!
Looks like a really nice trip!!
It was!
Glad you had a good time in Hot Springs!!!! We have a house on Lake Hamilton and just love it!!!!
This is a fun vlog, Marnie! That bowing dog was so sweet. You were brave to walk that trail, particularly after the history you learned the night before.
My younger brother owns two businesses in Hot Springs. They are a hat store and a unique souvenir shop.
So cool that you came to my state, isn’t Hot Springs nice?! I live in more of north central Arkansas.
We loved it!!
I used to do the same thing with the astronaut ice cream and MY boys when they were little! The beauty and grandeur of hotels like that are so majestic.
Looks like fun! And I love your vlogs!
It was!
Great video. Thank you!
Great video, thanks for sharing 😀
Good memories of a trip we took a few years ago with friends.
Nice vlog! Thank you for sharing :) ♥
💀💀💀 “it’s not our honeymoon” 🤣
So glad you had a great time!! We were in the same hotel and area on Labor Day!! It’s a lot of fun!!
Hi Marnie! Thank you for a great, informative vlog! I love vlogs and your personality is just the best! Have a good day....
Thank you so much!
LOVE that bottled water. It's difficult to find. I did find it on Amazon though.
I love Hot Springs! What hotel was that? I probably missed you saying it….we usually get a VRBO but I think it would be fun to stay near the bath houses in an old hotel!
I listed all the info in the description box. It was The Waters Hotel.
Hey Marnie, I live 30 mins from Hot Springs, in Benton. So cool that you visited. Which state do you live in?💕
I’m in San Antonio, TX.
Do you ever go to Florida?
I’m really surprised about the Duckie Tour. I thought they were all out of business.
I enjoyed your videos t to Hot Springs.
Well that’s really actually makes me want to visit Arkansas.🤗
I would have been weary of riding the duck boat tour after one went under there years ago and killed several people. We use to go yearly to Hot Springs Village when my dad was living but he has been gone for 12 years and I don’t think it would be the same without him. I’m glad you enjoyed yourself.
They totally redid the boats with added safety precautions. Much different than they were pre-accident.
Promenod like Lemonod or promenade like lemonade? Must be an American pronunciation? Looks like you had a great time. 💕💕
Promenade pronounced lemonod.
Sooo watching this was weird for me … 😂 I felt like you were spying on me. I was yelling at my TV explain what all the ‘creepy’ places that were trying to figure out were. I worked at the Arlington hotel as a teen. It definitely needs to be torn down now. Born and raised here moved away for 20+ years.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great vlog 🍁
I used to want to go to Hot Springs. Now I don’t. I see it’s not my cup of tea.
Interesting video 🙂✌️💕💕💕
