Branson – Three More Nights
We quickly winding up our time in Branson. Have gone to Mel’s Hard Luck Dinner (home of the singing servers – where you go after American Idol) a couple of times.
Saw the Wissman Family Christmas Show – a family of 13 children. Twelve of the children are still performing with the family (the oldest is married and living elsewher). The three-year old stoled the show.
Went to Silver Dollar City last night. They advertise 4 million Christmas Lights – Amazing. Saw the Cajun Connection show while we were there.
I’ve decided I’m just about show-ed out.
We’ve moved the motorhome to a different site here at the KOA. It’s more level and longer which should make leaving Monday easier. For some reason, our cat Stinky, has decided to leave now that we’ve moved. She’s got out twice yesterday. The last time, I grabbed her by the tail – Steve heard her accross the kampground.

Branson – And Christmas continues
We’ve seen a couple more Christmas shows – Presley’s & Haygoods. We weren’t overly impressed – first half of many of the shows is their regular show.
We leave a week from today!!!

Branson – Jim Stafford
Saw Jim Stafford’s Christmas show Sunday night. Half was his normal show, maybe half Christmas. I enjoyed it (as usual), but had hoped for more new stuff.
Worked Monday then headed back to Omaha for a few days. Arrived around 1 am. Plan to see some friends & family, take care of some business, then head back to Branson Friday morning.

Branson – Cowboy Christmas
Today we saw the Roy Rogers Jr. Christmas Show, which was good.
Tonight we saw Christmas on the Trail at Shepherd of the Hills. Also a good show.
We drove through the Trail of Lights and went to the top of Inspiration Tower tonight.
A good day. Now it’s back to work.

Branson – More Christmas
We went to Dino’s Christmas Spectular – it wasn’t. He played piano, too much non-Christmas.
We also saw the Dutton’s Christmas Show. It was probably half there regular show and half Christmas – again disappointing.
We heading home for a few days next week.

Branson – Tour Bus Explosion
November starts Christmas in Branson (because Andy Williams says so). I’ve never seen so many tour buses (and old people). We’ve already seen 5 Christmas shows. I’ve been disappointed with the big name shows (Andy Williams Christmas Show and Tony Orlando & the Lennon Sisters).
Hughes Brothers put on a great show!
