We're Here

So . . . we arrived at the Springfield airport, got our rental car, and drove to Branson. It was about a 30 minute drive to Branson. We were surprised by the heat - it was 97 degrees! We are hoping the kids are getting some relief at camp from the shade/trees. And I thought Florida was hot?? After driving around a bit, we found a great restaurant with the whole outdoor motif going on ~ it was right next to Bass Pro Shops store and it was right on the water (Lake Taneycomo). Of course, we walked around Bass Pro Shops after lunch & headed to Big Cedar Lodge (which is owned by the Bass Pro Shops guy John Morris). See the connections!! Driving into the property, you actually drive your car through 2 running streams. Our cabin in overlooking a part of Table Rock Lake - although you can't see the water too well through the trees. We have dead animals in our cabin: 3 dear head, 2 ducks, and 2 foxes. It is quiet here, Keith has already begun reading his book ~
