Flower Filler
I've decided to make a series of posts over the next couple of weeks of the flora and fauna from the county. Many of these shots were taken with a $20 Vivitar so the quality is not going to be that great on some.
I hope you enjoy these. I am always on the lookout for new varieties of wildflowers in our area. See more Flower Filler here.
I know that this is a common claim people make around the world, but to me the Ozarks of Arkansas truly is God's Country! This site will be dedicated to showing anyone interested--Sunday motorists to fair-weather cyclists--some of the hidden treasures in the county they drive through.
Over the past several years, with the explosion of the popularity of custom car-clubs and motorcycle enthusiasts, Izard county has seen a parade of people from outside the area coming to enjoy the panoramic views from the comfort of their chosen mode of pleasurable transportation. Many, I'm absolutely sure, drive by sights that are easily accesible and not far off the highway never even knowing those sights are there. This blog will give anyone searching for information before they visit the area a way to know where some of those places are.

Finally ... photos. I like those wild persimmons.
One oldtimer introduced them to me when I was a kid. He said, "Look at those green apples. Try one."
I did and regretted. He laughed and plucked an orange one...

I have a fifty + foot persimmon tree in my backyard.
Your oldtimer was not a very nice person (LOL!).
