Finally FUN TIMES!

If you have not been to Branson, MO you must plan a trip. We had so much fun!! Many summers of my childhood were spent camping around the Branson area. Not that I'm old or anything but I actually remember when Silver Dollar City was FREE and only a crowd of (maybe) 100 people per day visited. We were smart enough to stay away from there this year but we weren't smart enough to stay away from Branson Landing on a Friday night! Not just any Friday night.....the Friday night before the Iron Man was to begin. There must have been 10000 people on Branson Landing for a concert of some VERY LOUD band that was playing less than desirable music.

The rest of our trip made up for Friday night however. The best part of our mini "staycation" besides seeing our daughter and her husband was seeing my 75 year old parents on a zipline!! Yes, I said zipline! They had so much fun. They are only a speck at the bottom of the picture because they were going so fast but here's a picture to prove it (even though the date on our camera still says 2002). Maybe we'll change that some year!

All I can say is sometimes you just have to get away and do something you've never done before and enjoy life while you can. You never know when those moments will not be there for the taking.
