Google shows his address as: 110 jamison ln apt b2, hot springs, ar 71913
If the Ford he worked at is the one across the river, theres a bit of water to be searched. I wonder if it ever was.

Adventures with Purpose did a video about him, though mostly about one possible lead, but they're returning later.

This isn't doing any good just sitting in my google earth, so I guess I'll share it here.
Just to give a visual of where he went missing from, lots of possible water accident spots on his route.
AWP searched one spot based on a fishermans sonar of a car, not sure why they didn't search anywhere else.
