We recently took a fast trip 8/23-24 to Eureka Springs. From the Great Passion Play and Museum of Earth History (dinosaurs!), Caves, and car show.. we had a fun time.


The Christ of the Ozarks in Eureka Springs. Great Day for this picture. Built in 1966!


My family in front of the Christ of the Ozarks.


My son attempts to touch a dinosaur bone against his fear of being eaten.


My daughter wanting to pet the camel... but the camel wasn't friendly while he was eating. The old guy kept slapping the camel


The young man did an amazing job teaching and acting out the Shepherd story of King David and Battle with Goliath. He also demonstrated the rock sling after his presentation. Anointed and Passionate young man indeed. The Potter (not shown) was just as passionate.


This isn't a picture of the Passion play as no cameras were allowed. These are two pictures merged together. One of Christ ascending at the end an the bottom is of the play. The hillside behind it (not shown) is full of burial caves and Cross scene.


Ozark Cave Pictures


A group family picture from a timed digital snapshot placed on a crusty cave ledge deep in an ozark mountain. I barely made it into position. Yes my son and daugther were on a wall ledge themselves.

Enjoy as much as we did!

Eureka Springs is awesome! You were only two hours south of where I live.

I had a friend visit there last weekend with his girlfriend and he said they loved the place.

Yes. I love the area. This has been my third or fourth trip.

For Gerald and other auto nuts, Here is a photo also that I took

This photo is stitched fast together in PS from 4 photos to produce a "fake" panorama effect. Notice same people in multiple times.

That is cool. I had to look for the people twice. I wouldn't have noticed if I only looked at the pic in general. Cool shot.

I want a VW van with the pop up thingy on the top. 8)

what are the head-phones for in the family pic? for noise, or is it a self-guided tour?

Paully, Yes. It was self-guided. My son purchased some fools gold on the way out and wants to go back and get the crystals. I'm sensing he enjoys the bling bling. :lol:
