Beaver Dam
As Zaph had waited for us in the trailer while we checked out the stores we decided to take him for a drive and look for a nice place for a walk. The local map showed “Beaver Dam” a few miles down the road from us. “Beaver Dam” turned out to be a large dam built by the Corp of Engineers creating a large lake called Beaver Lake and some beautiful parkland.

The Crescent Hotel. It sits high on a hill overlooking the town --- people say that it is haunted.

We were standing down the road from the Crescent Hotel and looked across the valley and saw Christ of the Ozarks. It really is tall.
