Tornado Alley!
Devastation took place in the county last night on the winds of a fierce and terrible "cyclone"! These shots were taken along the path of a tornado that swept through Izard County last night that claimed the lives of two precious individuals and destroyed the homes of many more. The tornado bounced and staggered back and forth along the winding Zion Road for over 7 miles before heading off across the Strawberry River to wreak havoc to the northeast in Sharp County!
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.
