Foot Bridge Over Sugar Orchard Creek - June 30, 2021

I never get tired of the Arkansas Ozarks! It so different from my previous residences. This time of year the farmers are harvesting the first cut of hay and the smell wafts over the countryside. Hay is an important crop for our area and especially now when some of the other parts of the country are in drought conditions and might require feed for their animals. I took a drive down a dirt road I had never been on before and had the opportunity to watch them Make Hay While The Sun Shines.

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.
