24 August 2009

Hi All: Made it to the Branson Stagecoach Campground with no problems. Boy are we in the Ozark Mountains. Haven't seen such hills since Alaska, and the Rocky Mountains. These ones are not as high and long as those were, just a lot of up and down little mountains.

The Campground is super, has WiFi, Cable TV Full hook ups and a pull thru site. We have a beautiful view down a power line and we should be able to see the wild life come out there in the evening I would think. Looks like a super place for a Hunting Tree Stand right were we are sitting. Doubt they will let me shoot any deer??? Don't have a rifle any way. Just a .44 magnum pistol, so would have to be close. hee hee.

Our Directv satellite box had bought the farm. It acted up a few campground back when it would only download up to 10% and no farther. First I thought it was a weak signal, but yesterdays signal was 70%, but would only download to 10%. I called Dirctv and talked to a tech who ran me thru all the things I had already done, and he said he has never had that problem and he feels the box is shot. I was pretty sure of that too before I called. He would send me a new box free, but could only send it to our home address, and that will not help us on this trip, so I saw a Best Buy here in Branson so I will buy a new one here. Have a nice strong signal here, AND they give me cable TV to, but will need the satellite farther down the road. Stuff happens..

No photo's yet, but will have for the next Blog. Just wanted to let ya all know we made it here in good shape. There must be a million attractions and theaters etc here, plus Malls which makes Amy real happy. Don't think we will be able to go to everything, but I suspect Amy will try. hee hee.

Later.
