Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

BIG SPRING PARK - NEOSHO, MISSOURI

We happened upon this waterfall while searching for a church in the town of Neoshu, Missouri. The name of Neoshu is an Indian word meaning "clear or abundant" water. The downtown buildings are early 1800. It is a scene taken right out of civil war times.


ACCESSIBILITY:  Big Springs Park has well-maintained grassy areas and stone or concrete pathways. Neosho is known as "the flower box" city.  The Park's grounds have flowers planted in many beds and a wading pool, benches for relaxing while enjoying the flowers or watching the ducks.
