It's obvious spring has sprung at Hard Work U. Trees, daffodils, tulips and pansies are showing off for visitors. Many folks make their way to the campus during the fall, in order to see the many hues of orange and red, but perhaps one of the prettiest times to see the College of the Ozarks campus is in the latter part of March and early part of April. If you've never seen the Dogwoods and Redbuds in full bloom on an Ozarks hill, you are missing some of God's best handiwork. I like to imagine what it would have been like when settlers saw these Ozarks hills for the first time--a spring bubbling out the side of moss covered hill while a crooked redbud reveals its inner beauty. Although the landscape has seen man's handiwork, instead of God's, there remains a few places that remind us all His art is better than ours.
