Branson, MO

This morning we awoke to 50 degree temp. Surprisingly even at that temp. there were small hummingbirds at the feeders. Gail says he thinks the one that are still there are this years hatch as the larger ones have left. They know that some hatch during the summer but have never been able to find a nest. After breakfast of bacon, eggs and rolls we visited a while and then were on the road again about 10;30. It was back north through Pleasant Hill and then west on US 54 crossing back over the Mississippi River at Louisiana, MO. After passing through Bowling Green the terrain became flat passing by fields of corn & soybeans. As we continues SW crossing I-70 the terrain became very rolling and covered with trees. After passing by the Lake of the Ozarks we turned south on MO 5 to I-44. Journeying on SW on I-44 for 40 miles before turning south on US 65 traveling up and down the long rocky hills to Branson where we are staying at Americas Best Campground. Friends Paul & Mary from Kentucky will meet us here tomorrow. We will spend the rest of the week here enjoying the shows and sights of the area.
