Areas around the Lake of the #Ozarks saw a widespread downgrade in this week's #drought update from @droughtcenter . While 53 percent of #Missouri in drought is unchanged from last week, just over one-fourth of the state is now in severe or extreme drought. Another 24.9 percent of the state is in abnormal dryness.

It leaves a feeding of being betrayed by #bateman and whoever wrote the script. It started so damn good... But once reached season 4 everything becomes so inconsistent and irrational. It's clear to see they would need to turn left to get all they want and Marty knows it and still they turn right just to keep the plot going.
It's just going on circles again and again and the smart Marty becomes a spineless father and husband to a total psychotic Wendy. #ozarks #netflix

Saw these cuties this morning as I stepped out to do chores. Thought I'd try to share a slice of #Ozarks life here to get back in the social media habit.

I was able to provide some very cool field opportunities for students as a lecturer at #rpi I am hoping for even cooler stuff at University of the #Ozarks

How Missouri made the Lake of the Ozarks: Crimes, sunken homes and dreams of a Midwest oasis https://www.kcur.org/history/2023-07-27/how-missouri-made-the-lake-of-the-ozarks-crimes-sunken-homes-and-dreams-of-a-midwest-oasis via #KCUR #Missouri #LakeOfTheOzarks #Ozarks #MissouriOutdoors

A tragic, fatal accident with a water and land tour by #Duck killed the attraction in #Branson and brought outrage across the state for safety violations. Where is that outrage when it comes to #marijuana? #safetydebate #recreationaldrugs #duckboat #ozarks https://ofb.biz/sa1115

I swear, this entire show feels like a long episode of "They could have gotten away with it if the team would keep their mouth shut and follow the plan."

The daughter, Charlotte, is especially annoying.

This was only a couple of weeks ago. let this sink in that the weather is getting extreme. #ozarks rumors that we've had even bigger hail but I can't confirm it

This pollen ain't playing around!!!

#spring #ozarks

Working on and walking around the property in recent weeks has given me the opportunity to enjoy more of the spring ephemerals than I usually see.

This one is a rue anemone I spotted this afternoon while collecting trash along the strip which is bordered by a highway.

Things are slowly starting to green up in Arkansas even though we're kicking off another cold snap over the coming days.

I have about another month to take advantage of vegetation and bug-free forests that make hiking a more enjoyable experience in the Ozarks. This photo was captured in mid-summer 2021 in Ozark National Forest just above Kyle's Landing on the Buffalo River.

#January 19, 1917
#OTD Leo Drey, American #Timber magnate, #Conservationist, & #Philanthropist, is born.

Leo loved #Nature. He devised a way to harvest individual #Trees w/out harming his commercial #Forest.

Leo acquired 160,000 acres of the #Ozarks to create #PioneerForest, which he gifted to #Missouri in 2005. His foundation protects natural areas.

Leo's #Voicemail greeting was,

"I'm out planting a forest. Please leave your name & number, & I'll try to get back to you before it matures."

God’s School From Hell

At Missouri’s #Agapé school, a devout #Baptist boarding facility for boys, students claim their treatment bordered on #torture.

At first glance, the facility for “#at-risk and #unmotivated boys” — a #Baptist institution in Stockton, #Missouri — wasn’t so terrible. The foothills of the #Ozarks sat in the distance. Swimming, horses and football awaited.

I love pictures of lit windows at night. They always come out blurry because I'm just using a phone camera with nothing to steady it, but I keep shooting them anyway. And here's a picture of the moon just for the heck of it.

unedited sunset photos taken just now on my #pixel7

I love how the sharp orange contrasts with the grey and purple clouds

This is such a cool event idea!

There's still fog from last night's rapid temperature drop over the deepest part of the lake. It's like seeing the ghost of the old river.
