Big Spring is one of the largest springs in Missouri AND in the entire United States. It boasts an average daily flow of 286 million gallons of water, according to The National Park Service. You can read more about the park here.
Even in the dead of winter, the spring was a stunning shade of blue, and my photos simply could not do the scenery justice. However, it was still very relaxing and peaceful taking pictures and watching the water rush out of ground. We love our Missouri state parks, so I hope you all enjoy my photos from today!
In the style of @papa-pepper, I've been trying to make a better effort to take some quick selfies when we go out to show that we were actually there and to prove that we took the photos.
Thanks for checking out today's adventure in the Missouri Ozarks and stay tuned for more!
