Tuesday, July 21

7:15 a.m. - We arrived yesterday in Branson.  On the way we stopped at a Buc-ees, and I must admit that I wasn't as impressed as I thought I might.  It's just a really, really big travel center that makes a lot of stuff for folks to eat, drink, and buy.  Then we made our way to our campground, which wasn't exactly the easiest drive, but we did survive.  I'm learning very quickly to "Google" RV friendly routes.  The campground we are in is fine.  It's not as nice as some we have stayed at, but it's okay.  In the evening yesterday we wen't for a drive to explore a bit and pick up a few things - stopped at a Camping World and a WalMart.  The city isn't really what I would have pictured it, but I think there is a learning curve to understanding it.  One thing for sure is that no one goes anywhere fast.  There is either a lot of traffic, or the road is up and down and winding around.  

Today we have a couple of excursions planned.  We are going to Top of the Rock this morning, and later today we are going to go see a show.  The heat is HOT.  We are supposed to get one more day of really bad heat, and then things are supposed to back off a bit, which will be nice.
