Ice Rink melts in Hot Springs

Sometimes the headlines write themselves.

An outdoor ice rink in Hot Springs, Arkansas, was shut down on the season’s opening day on Friday … because it was melting.

Brian Leonard, ice rink manager for the Hot Springs Convention and Visitors Bureau, said about a half-hour after the rink opened, the ice had started to melt, and the rink was shut down an hour after that.

“You can see that there’s a big old pond where the skating rink is,” Leonard said.
