Short Trip

We came home a few hours ago from a short trip to southern Missouri.  We headed to the Branson area and spent a couple nights at a resort on Indian Point (on past where you normally turn off to park at Silver Dollar City) with my brother and sister from Wichita and their families.  We’ve stayed at the resort before, and we feel comfortable there.
Although it was cold, we had a good time playing cards, eating, talking, shopping, eating, walking, resting, eating, and show-seeing (Shoji Tabuchi).  Did I mention eating?
By the way, Shoji is worth seeing.  Yes, he’s a country violinist, but only about a fourth of his show was country.  There was patriotic, gospel, classical, oldies rock, show tunes, and other genre scattered throughout, with amazing and glittering production numbers.  The theater itself is a showpiece…more than just a building.  You about have to see it to appreciate it.
In any event, it is always good to go to things like that and see the relatives.  It’s also always good to turn in to the drive and park in the garage.  I may write about some things that happened in the last 48 hours or so…or I may not.  We’ll just see how it goes.
