Bailey, Sr. (right) on a trip to Happy Hollow "amusement park" in Hot Springs, Arkansas, located at the end of Fountain Street, just off Central Avenue, and north of Hot Springs Mountain. They are posing for the photographer on two of the park's burros. Happy Hollow was a tourist attraction started in 1888 by photographer Norman McLeod. The park contained a shooting gallery, a zoo, and a souvenir shop. The shooting gallery was located on the side of the mountain, where a shelf held targets made of bottles. The park’s zoo held fifty animals, while additional uncaged animals, such as burros, ponies, and horses, roamed the park for adults and children to ride.
