We have enjoyed Hollister/Branson, MO. Like I said, much different than my pre-conceptions about the town. Although, last night we made a Walmart trip, and GPS took us to a part of town we had not been before AND this was what I thought all of Branson was like. Flashy billboards on both sides of the road advertising shows, grand buffets (wonder if they are truly buffets anymore), rentals of all kinds and family game arcades. But there is more to Branson and we have enjoyed it.
Went on the Branson Scenic Railroad trip last night. Very cool, old train but not very scenic. 🙂 The ride was through pretty country/very woodsy, and we ended in Arkansas. Then the train goes back the same way – going through two tunnels. Liked hearing the history of the train and building of the tunnels and we met some really nice people.
We ate at Mr. G’s Chicago Pizza & Pub and loved our half & half pizza. G (my Garland) ordered 1/2 Mr. G’s and I got 1/2 of meat-lovers. Good service and nice atmosphere. Would give this place and the food an 8!
Today is straighten up for traveling day tomorrow. We still have too many extra things, so we’ll be taking more to the campground’s donation table. 🙂
