Family Vacation - Ozark, Missouri Part 2

The highlight of today was a visit to Branson Missouri, about 30 minutes south of the Porters house in Ozark. Branson is known for it's live shows, most of which are Country with a few comedy acts thrown in for variety. It is also a haven for shopping and amusement park attractions. Being that none of my family are much into Country Music, we decided to spend our time eating and playing. We had funnel cakes and ice cream at the locally famous Cakes and Cream. Outside this 50's style diner, they had some Hula Hoops, which we all took turns with. Catie was the champion Hula girl. Must be all that dance training! However, Chris gave Catie a run for her money and got bonus points for enthusiasm. The kids all went Go-Carting and then we all joined them for a round of mini golf. We had a great time, even though it was humid and 104 degrees. Man, it felt like we were in a steam room, with out the charm. We wrapped up the evening Ozark style be returning to the Porters back porch for a glass of wine and the free show of watching the large bugs get fried in the bug zapper. Now how can you beat that for entertainment?!
