The Magic of HA HA Tonka By Dwight Weaver

here are many places in the Missouri Ozarks noted for beauty, intrigue, romance and history but to have it all in one place is pure magic! At Ha Ha Tonka State Park the natural wonders and curiosities are blended with cultural artifacts in a most unique way. People who discover this gem of springs, sinkholes, natural bridges, caves, cliffs, woodlands, glades, savannas, hills, hollows, lakes, trails, boardwalks, outlaw history and the ruins of a spectacular castle and carriage house usually return again and again. Missourians have made is one of the state’s most treasured parks. It is located on the Niangua Arm of Lake of the

Ozarks where Daniel Boone and his son Nathan once trapped beaver and the Osage Indians lived, and it’s less than two miles west of Camdenton off U. S. Highway 54 on D Road. The park is so popular that no matter how cold, hot, wet or dry the weather is, you can almost always ﬁnd someone wandering about in this remarkable park totting a camera, admiring the scenery, viewing the castle, ﬁshing down by the lake, having a picnic or simply sitting on a bench enjoying the outdoor setting. Yet far too many people who visit the park leave thinking they have seen it all when they have visited the castle ruins, looked into the entrance of River Cave, walked beneath

Ha Ha Tonka State Park.

the Natural Bridge, peered at the Water Tower, circled the old post office building or hiked the trail in the great Chasm to visit the spring that issues forth 50 million gallons of cold groundwater every day. Only a small percentage of visitors take on the challenge of exploring the trails that radiate elsewhere throughout the several thousand acres of the park. Marvelous things are tucked away in those backwoods areas along the outbound trails of Ha Ha Tonka. The park has 15 miles of trails but you don’t have to hike to the bitter end of every trail to find something interesting. When you visit River Cave do more than just peer into its main entrance and its sinkhole. Go around the boardwalk that leads down to the cave’s entrance and view the other sinkhole -- the one that features a second gated entrance to the cave. It’s one of the deepest and most impressive sinkholes in the park. If you are there after a heavy rain you might find it exciting because the sink can become a deep lake with a sucking whirlpool sending

storm water into the cave. And if its June or July, just a short jaunt away is one the park’s most beautiful glades with abundant wildﬂowers. The name “Boulder Ridge” should clue you in to the character of this easy one-mile hike but the surprise is that the boulders aren’t exactly on the ridge since they have taken a tumble part way down the south slope of the ridge. And they are huge. One of the more scenic bluffs in the park is tucked away along the Devil’s Kitchen Trail. Here, along the east wall of a broad sink valley is a towering, curving wall of dolomite, hence the name “Promenade.” Associated with it is a large shelter cave called “The Devil’s Kitchen” and at the back of the boulder-strewn cave is a skylight where smoke from the devil’s ﬁreplace probably escaped. Out upon the ramparts of the Dolomite Rock Trail are Witness trees, a mysterious manmade rock wall, and an outcrop of Gunter Sandstone unlike any other in the park. You can explore

16 AmeriShop.biz along the base of the sandstone ledges for nearly one-quarter mile and ﬁnd plenty of odd, grotesque, colorful and scenic features to examine and photograph. The day the author hiked the trail another hiker was encountered, a gentleman who said he’d hiked the Dolomite Rock Trail many times and rarely ever saw anyone upon it. He seemed surprised to encounter me. And I was surprised at the natural wonders I found along the Dolomite Rock Trail. My camera stayed quite busy. If you’ve never seen a fault in the earth where the powers of mother nature deep underground have disrupted the bedrock and pushed it to the surface to leave it tilted at a sharp angle and mounded up as if a giant mole has tunneled the landscape, then take a hike

on the Turkey Pen Hollow Trail where wildﬂowers blaze in season. The Red Arrow Fault is about twoand-a-half miles out and the trail crosses right over it. There are very few books about Ha Ha Tonka but one titled “A Pictorial Guide to Ha Ha Tonka State Park,” written by the author, will be released this summer. This 193-page book takes you on the trails of wonder and history that comprise Ha Ha Tonka State Park. If you never visited the park, it will make you want to go there. If you have been there, it will probably reveal treats that you’ve missed. The book features more than 300 vintage and contemporary images.

The Scale - Friend or Foe? By Tina Sullens

know I’m not alone when I say that some days I just want to set my bathroom scale on fire! We let those little things frustrate us so much that we either give up on our weight loss goals; or we at least want to give up! When we begin a new fitness routine, it’s important to determine our starting weight and our measurements. Taking your “before” pictures can also be a very useful tool in helping us reach our goals. But when it comes to the scale, how often and when should we weigh ourselves? According to research, it’s best to weigh ourselves first thing in the

morning. So after we “do our business”, strip down to your birthday suit and weigh yourself! This will be fairly close to what your true weight actually is. It’s also best to weigh ourselves as close to same time each day as possible. So how often is too often? It actually is different for each person. If you are new to a ﬁtness routine, it may be a good idea to weigh in once a week so we can tell what’s working and what isn’t. Always keeping in mind that the scale may go up a few pounds but it doesn’t mean that we aren’t being successful in our efforts. Weighing ourselves daily, and seeing the numbers going up and down so often, can make us become discouraged and give up; only to go back to our

Small Steps, in a BIG Direction Ballance your gut feelings with business research. Know where you are starting from. Be truthful with yourself on how far you have to climb to get where you need to be. Get It Done.

old habits that got us here in the first place. We have to find a healthy balance that works for us. For men and women, our weight can vary by about 2% of our body weight from day to day. Several factors contribute to this gain or loss. If we drink a lot of fluids prior to weighing, it could show a slight immediate gain on the scale. But ironically, not drinking enough water can also show a gain. If we are even slightly dehydrated, our bodies will hold onto whatever water it can get hold of. Also, eating foods high in sodium (most processed foods are loaded with sodium!), too much stress, and for women – the onset of our menstrual cycle can cause these gains. Now for the good news!! This

change in our weight from day to day is most likely not fat weight. You would have to consume an extra 3,500 calories in order to gain a pound of fat. Where that is not completely impossible, it is not likely. So drink more water, get plenty of rest, exercise at least 30 min. each day, and cut down on the sodium. Don’t become a slave to the numbers on a scale. The scale can be your best friend or your worst enemy. It’s up to YOU on which one you allow it to be.
