The vacation is rolling along. Took 3 days to drive down here from Cleveland - took my time getting here. The L&T, son and I met Greybeard for breakfast this morning. First time I'd met the gentleman and (despite having been an officer) he is as genuinely interesting and funny in person as he is on his blog. If you haven't read his bloggy goodness, hie yourself hence and read his take on life. It will be time well spent. And I'm not saying that just because I tend to agree with him. You can read on after you return.
We rolled into Branson about 1700 today. My sister from Sacramento and her husband showed up about 5 minutes after we did. Weather so far has been slightly rainy but hell, I'm not at work so I'm happy anyway. This is a time share with a full kitchen so our first order of business was to start stocking the pantry with a trip to Wally World. We'd brought a cooked turkey breast from home so that was our first dinner. Tomorrow - who knows?
We've only made two decisions so far WRT what we'll do. There is a veterans' museum here in Branson so that'll be a stop for the males while the distaff side hits a quilt shop and does a little shopping. The other decision was to go see Bill Medley and Paul Revere and the Raiders in concert. The L&T and I saw Bill Medley in Lake Tahoe years ago and thoroughly enjoyed his act. So we're going to see him again and see if he's still got those marvelous pipes. Keep ya posted as I play in Branson...

Enjoyed meeting you and yours Tuesday, my friend. Glad to hear you are safely at touristville. I'm a fan of both Bill Medley and "Paul and the Raiders" and hope they put on a great show.
Let us know how many of the original "Raiders" show up. (Mark Lindsay?)
On your way home, watch for "Lambert's Cafe" between Branson and Springfield. I PROMISE you, L&T will be glad you stopped! (You will too!)
Thanks for pickin' up the tab. Next one's on me!
