Driving Along Terrapin Creek - October 27, 2019
Updated  January 3, 2021
December ended up being a decent weather month. No snowstorms and enough rain to replenish our water table and springs. I managed to get out once in December. Since I had 24 Picture Of The Weeks stored away, it is time to produce Picture Of The Week - Gallery III. These images are from the front page of the Barefoot Traveler and are changed each update. Hope you enjoy seeing them again.  Also added the Fitton Cave Map to article by Josh Bailey

Some Of My Favorite Pictures From Years Past

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.
