Excitement builds each year for us at EIC at each chance of a good snow. Driving the backroads of Izard County when the hills are blanketed in snow gives one a similar feeling as stepping out on the town with your hot-clad sweetheart!
A "similar feeling" because, unlike a night out with your beautiful soulmate, one is most likely glad when an icy rendezvous is over.
An encounter or two per year satisfies the lust for snowy drives!
Therefore, in the hope of Redbuds and Dogwoods, we pay homage to Winters past while inviting glorious Spring!
The video below is compiled of photos and video from the winters of 2007-2009.
ENJOY!

Video: Rocky Bayou Traverse
The following video is a result of several short excursions the EIC Crew has made around Lunenburg and along Rocky Bayou the past few weeks. Rocky Bayou was a major source of water in the county for the pioneers and they took advantage of the wide, level creek-bottoms.
Enjoy!

A Trip Up Tanner Hollow
I took a Sunday Afternoon Drive this week. Just out of the County Seat, Melbourne, there is the remnants of a road used for generations until only recently (last 20 years). It was a main thoroughfare of the county at one time, linking Melbourne and central Izard County with Guion (originally "Wild Haws Landing"), on the White River.
The road (trail, actually) is only about a mile long and runs up an interesting hollow complete with a stream running within a few feet of the "shoulder". A wonderful delight for those who make the short traverse up the track (better have a pick-up, at least!) is the lush fern-growth hanging from the bank that is the hill-side of the trail for most of its length. The Tanner Hollow road is located about four miles down Highway 58 (Guion Road) from where it leaves Highway 69 near Sage.
