The long hot summer has ended and hopefully the rains will begin in earnest. I have had 12 inches of rain in the last few days. Many folks need the rain to replenish their wells and springs. Bill and I took some time during the summer drought to practice with our Nikon cameras. I learned quite a bit and we enjoyed our time out in the sun.  Bill took some awesome Up Close images.

Situated mainly within three states, the 60,000 square mile Ozark Plateau stretches from eastern Oklahoma to southern Missouri to northern Arkansas. The Ozark Mountains, rising to a height of 2,560 feet in Arkansas' Boston Mountains, represent the largest area of highlands between the Appalachians and the Rockies. These rolling hills and low mountains offer rugged terrain, eroded by water from springs and rivers flowing on a journey to the Mississippi River.

Sparsely populated, the Ozark region is unknown to many people, conjuring up scenes of pioneer cabins among the vast hardwood tree cover, where life takes on a slower pace. It is indeed a place where you can get glimpses of an earlier way of life, but it also holds many beautiful, scenic discoveries within its rolling landscape.
