More about the Ozarks

I am sitting in a parking lot that actually has internet, so I can post some more about the Ozarks.

First, just the general beauty of the area. The trees went really turning colors yet, but you can see just the promise of future color.

Love the fog that shows in the valleys.

Then there are the “wild” horses that roam the area. They are wild in the sense they aren’t owned by anyone, but they definitely are habituated to people. We saw these three, two mares and a foal, at Echo Bluff State Park parking lot. The foal got about 3 foot from me, and one of the mares grazed about 5 foot away. Definitely used to people!

That is the front of the car hood showing red. They moved even closer after I took this.

Yesterday was an absolutely gorgeous day, so I mostly just sat outside and read. It is the kind of day that makes me really, really regret I can’t get on the river, but I just don’t feel well enough. Today is a wet and cold day, so we are just hanging out at the state park campground using their WiFi. When I get back I intend on sewing for a while and then just generally cleaning up. With all the cloud cover we will definitely have to run the generator, and that means I can vacuum. After vacuuming, I will mop, and the floor is in desperate need of it!
