Hiking Branson (Unbifurcated of Course)
We had some beautiful weather this past weekend (much different from current weather conditions  ) and my girlfriend asked if I wanted to go and hike some of the trails that frequented when she attended College of the Ozarks near Branson. I jumped at the opportunity.
After seeing all of the wonder photo journals that Alex puts up I thought I might try my hand for those of you who may never have been to the Ozarks.
I rode my motorcycle to Branson because the weather was so nice. Later I changed into the kilt when the heat got to me. I didnt realize how much cooler wearing a kilt while hiking was. The breeze up the kilt is fantastic!
Here I am before hitting the trail.

All in all it was a very fun day. I had bit of a downer, I ended up in a traffic accident but everything is okay, and we didnt let it ruin the day.

Awesome pics. Hiking is never more fun than when the trail you are includes warning signs.  Sorry about your accident.

Great photos. My grandparents were from the Ozarks. My grandfather who passed away last September still held some property somewhere around Branson.

Great photos, I hope you your passenger and your bike are OK. Glad it didn't wreck your day.
