There's another yellow one over there. It's almost like it's inverted.
That other one had the red on it. Uh-huh. On the outside. And then it had the yellow.
On the inside. This one's got the yellow. Yellow on the outside.
As I said, there's one more bloom over there.
Oh look at, oh yeah, I see the yellows and the reds.
That's the red, oh there's two more, yeah.
And they are all, some of them are yellow. Look at this one, look at this one right here.
So probably at the beginning they are yellow and then they become red.
Or they have that color on the top.
Now they got red ones and yellow ones. And lots of butterflies, black and orange and blue butterflies.
Wow, there's a bunch of red down here today guys.
What a trip. With all the butterflies, baby loves the butterflies. Yeah that too.
I mean there's everywhere out here guys. In this bottom.
It's just good to go hiking man. I'm so glad we're on the trail.
Now horse, horse, horse, horse. Dead something. Now those are the Sweet Williams.
Look at this pretty flower. Watch, look at this flower. Looks like it eat an egg, don't it?
You see it? Look on the camera. Okay, yeah I see it.
It's a flower. Yeah up underneath the leaf of the tree.
There's a hidden flower up underneath the leaf of one of these trees. Like it looked like an egg
almost. Real yellow. And these guys, guys, you don't want these on you.
Oh sticky. You taking ticks off of you? Make sure you ain't got no ticks. Look good.
Now here's a cross. You see the pink over here, Ron?
But here's the cross line. Look, you got the pink one right here. Like a true pink. Oh yeah.
Like a true pink, dude. Look at the yellow one down here. These are red. Red, pink. I see the
yellow now. There's the cross line right here, Julie. There's a pink one. Lots of reds up there.
You see the pink one? Yeah, then the yellow ones are here again, guys.
Butterflies love the red. Yeah, like two or three of them together, man. I'll check through the red
ones. Wow. The Ozarks never cease to amaze us, guys. Each new season brings a new. There's
red ones. Yeah.
Good job. Gotta be happy. Happy, happy. You want me to slow down a little bit now?
Maybe a little further up, Ron. Yeah. Probably take a small break. Yeah. Okay. Okay.
I'm just glad to catch a breath, all of us. See some rocks above us.
It's a butterfly. A yellow one came over to me. A yellow one did? Yeah. Teresa came over to see me.
Look at that. That's a big cake. Did you dump it? Yeah, I did. Where he was? I just threw him out
back in the wild. Well, Teresa. Teresa, come over there and test you? Yes, right here on my arm.
On your arm? Teresa gave her approval. Amen, dog. Amen, bro. Wow. Wow. That's amazing.
She literally touched you? Yes. On my arm here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They are so beautiful.
That's a big old long tree falling over, guys.
Ron said we're headed to right up here. See that red sign? So we just gotta go up. Right, Ron? Yep.
Upward and outward. Up, up, up. Again, Boomhole Vista. Mark Twain National Park.
Just another forest next to Greer Springs. Falling Springs. Turner Mills in the air.
Put this one on there, guys. Ron's waiting on us. Can y'all imagine?
73-year-old. Soon to be two days, right? What's that? Your birthday's coming up, 4-16? Yeah.
Happy birthday, everybody, for Ron. Happy birthday early. Yep. This is a nice birthday.
What's that? This is a nice birthday. Amen, brother. Amen. Just being out in nature, guys.
I'll just tell you, it's just so much for the soul. It's just good. And Ron, Ron's like carrying,
Ron's just carrying himself these days. Man, good to be out here in the wilderness
to encourage each other to go find your truth. The ant pile right here,
watch out for that one. What about that rock? Oh yeah, we're getting there.
Oh yeah, we made it, Julie. Just keep walking. You good? Good.
We're almost here. It's worth it, I promise you.
Oh, so proud. Table up here, guys. Beautiful, isn't it? Okay. That backwater is amazing.
I think that's where Boom Hole is. That's where they used to bring the logs down.
That's why it's called Boom Hole Vista. This isn't the Boom Hole. That's the Boom Hole up there.
And so this is part of the 11 Point River that's above Greer Springs, right guys? So you can see
that there's hardly any water flow. I mean, there's water, but it's not nearly. Yeah,
that's the pool up there.
You've seen it for a while, Ron? Huh? You've seen it for a while? Oh yeah, every time I've been.
Where are we at? What are the sun shining?
That's how it pops.
Years of making those sandbars have created all along the creek. Used to be,
this was a lot more navigable than it was, than it is now.
But because a lot of the timber, the pine was stripped off the hills back in the late 1800s,
it done allowed a lot of erosion, and that's where a lot of the gravel is coming from.
It's not that bad of a hike either, guys. They're lost. They're lost, yeah. They even
that's Kevin for you. Yeah, now for somebody else, their idea of heaven may be
and that's fine. Whatever.
