This photo is of my Great Grandma and Grandpa Sohl. They lived on Jefferson Street in the house my grandpa built. Almost all of the homes on their street were torn down to put in a parking lot. But I will never forget the legacy of these two beautiful humans and grandma’s all-season garden that she tended to with so much pride.

Seeing Bald Eagles

By Jennifer Keith
From Springdale, Arkansas

My name is Jennifer Keith and I’ve lived in Springdale, Arkansas for 20 years. When I think of the Ozarks, Beaver Lake is one of the key aspects that really makes me think of this area.

One of my favorite memories specifically of Beaver Lake was when a few years ago my dad came to town from Wisconsin and we took a boat tour in the winter to see the bald eagles. It was a cold and dreary day but it was so much fun. We learned so much about the eagles and their story of why they come to the Ozarks for the winter.

It’s easy to love the beauty of the Ozarks when you can see this in your front yard.

I found a group of pictures above the staircase. I recognize the familiar Ozarks. Here, someone carried a camera down the same trails in a different time, blown by the same wind. Turning over the image of a rising sun, it reads “77” in the hand
of my father.
