Branson

Joe and I went to Branson Missouri this week. We enjoyed our lake cruise. I now am the proud owner of a Merchant Marine license I earned from driving the ship!

The musical group "SIX" is composed of six brothers. They don't use any music, sound tracks, back-up singers, or instruments. They even make all their own instrument sounds using their voices. It was incredible, I've never heard anything like it.

Jim Stafford was a waste of time. His jokes were so bad they were making fun of them in other shows. He also had a 3-D movie that looked like my sixth graders made it. It was sad.


The Kirby and Bambi magician show was excellent. Their illusions looked so real. At the end of the show he made a helicopter appear on stage. I'd never seen anything like that. How did he do it?
Surprisingly, the Presleys' show was one of the best in Branson. They are an extremely talented family, great set, great costumes, great entertainment. I loved their show.
Of course, we had to see the Roy Rogers show again. His son, Dusty, does the show. We saw it last time we went and enjoyed it so much we had to see it again.
We discovered the original Beverly Hillbilly's car used in the television show. It was in a museum in Branson.
It was a great ending to a fun summer.
