It is a phenomenally beautiful morning in Southwest Missouri! The grass is green, trees are starting to leaf out and the electric pink of blossoming redbuds is highlighting the landscape. Put on your light rain jacket and get outside!

We don't do this often, but will again spread the word about a stellar (AND FREE) local event. The 31st Kids Classic is two weeks away. Active kids are healthy kids. Please share this with your friends, families, and sports teams. Participation is totally free and the first 500 registered get a T-shirt. Kids run distances based on age, from 100yds for pre-school to 1.25 miles for 6th grade. More information on their FB page.

We have revised the map to reflect the changes we made to better avoid perpetually wet spots. All of the trail is now marked with orange tape and most of it has been cleared but a few parts of the red and blue loop may have tall grass until we can get a mower out there!

This did not exist two hours ago. Walnut Bottoms trail is always improving; here cutting the blue loop a little higher to keep the trail dry when the water comes up. Enjoy your Bottoms... See you on the trail.

Enjoying the fruits of yesterday's labor. I got to work on bench cutting with a great group. Big thanks to the dirt work crew!
