Branson, Missouri




Sunday 7/27/08 – Wednesday 7/30/08

We took a break from the RV for a few days and stayed in a Time Share in Branson, Missouri. It was a nice break and we were able to get caught up on all the laundry. We had a nice place with lots of room and a TV that got actual channels. On a couple of days, we found ourselves going to the pool at 9 at night. It was still warm outside and the pool was crowded.
On Monday, we went to a dinner and preview of some shows in Branson. We didn’t see anyone there that we really wanted to see. We did get some free tickets for a couple of shows. We saw a show called Legends in Concert. This was a show where the singers were impersonating other singers. The “legends” we saw were Shania Twain, Johnny Cash, the Blues Brothers, Elvis, and the Temptations. They do a pretty good job. We thought the Temptations were the best. We also saw a show called the Duttons. If you saw the TV show America’s Got Talent, they were in the top 8 of that show. It is a family where everyone plays violins, fiddles, banjos, etc. and sings. It was a very lively entertaining show.
One day we drove out to the Table Rock Dam and Lake. We took a walk on a lake trail. In the shade by the lake it felt pretty good. The temperature was in the 90’s and with the heat index it felt 105. We did some other walking by the dam but because of the heat it wasn’t too comfortable. When we got back to the room, Ed decided to do some geocaching. If he had thought of it earlier, Lynn would have gone but she had done enough walking and opted for the pool instead. Ed found one of the two caches and came back very hot and tired.
