The Moment You Have ALL Been Waiting For...

Now let's conclude this journey by showing you mother at Dick's 5 & Dime Store. A store that literally had EVERYTHING. I felt quite at home as you can see. Hope you all enjoyed this little journey to Branson. We had a great time and might consider going again if ya'll would join us. A great time will be had by all. love, mom
And here we have the second couselor and his wife who gave the prayer last sunday in church. They along with 9 other families perform daily in Branson with the ENTIRE family. This is NOT uncommon to say the least.

Dane this one is for you. Among the many words that describe Branson such as cobbler, time shares, down home cookin, grits, fishin, live entertainment, outlets, vacancy, Ozarks, Silver Dollar City, silver headed couples, tri-lakes and Shepherd of the Hills ( a book written about this area and of course there is a live production of the book) the word KNIFE comes to mind. Yes, everywhere you go, any kind you want you can find it in Branson. And that comes with a complimentary name engraving by a famous knife guy. Yeahhhh!


Now for those of you who have visited Em and Ben in Oregon, you might think that they could lay claim to the state boasting the most RV's but I say Branson Mo. is right up there with those North Westerners. Seems folks live half their lives in RV's in Branson and then migrate back to their homes for the rest of the year.



Even you could have viewed over 400 artifacts from the Titanic all the while touching a REAL ICEBERG, yes folks...that's what I said, a real one.




Branson's Hwy. 76 or better known to the locals as "the STRIP" rated PG. Really, it's all good CLEAN fun. Always bumper to bumper, heck who needs to leave Chicago to escape traffic when you can enjoy Branson's Strip, see everything while you drive 5 miles an hour at max.





Branson has it all, Church of Christ, Bargains and more souvenirs than you would ever want. Oh wait, Christmas will bring a great surprise for ya'll.






Yes, folks you are looking at the rim of car...this was facinating...







A town with much culture, loads of refinement and endless fine art as displayed in this vehicle above. Allow me to locate a close up of this...








And yes indeedy, we did enjoy a pool along with many other ammenities.













































Just a few pics to whet your appetite for BRANSON....a great time was had by mom and dad, shur whish y'all culd av joy'nd us!












To our left is the living room and kitchen at Falls Resort...and to our right and above is your father figure, better known as "bug boy" participating in his a.m./p.m. facial delight. What a sight! To the left above, the front of our living quarters.
