Running the Roads-Sunday 11th & Monday 12th
Sunday is a day of rest so we rested, slept in and soaked up the atmosphere. After lunch we decided to find one of the promised springs. There are scads there, some "dressed up" like the picture and some not so much. All of the springs are now contaminated and no longer used for water but as lures for tourists. Downtown is full of old buildings, all of which were built in the 20th century because the town had previously been destroyed by fire-twice. This time they built more with stone and brick. At one time there were more stonemasons than any other profession living in the area. I captured the Courthouse, an old hotel and a "shot" of the downtown which is mainly giftshops and eateries now. Curt fell in love with the name of this one place and had to have a pix. Monday saw us back on the road. Most of Branson is like hairdressers, off on Mondays so we ate out(what a treat) and will catch an early night. Sightseeing comes tomorrow and we'll catch some show....to be determined as our tastes are not in sync right now.
