a nice day in Branson

We've had a very good day in Branson so far and expect the rest of the day to be great also.  We joined Larche and Marianne this morning and found the "Quilts and Quilts" store.  Marianne likes to sew as well as JoAnn and she was the one that wanted to find this store.  She had shopped at this store several times in the past but last spring a tornado ripped through its original location.  We found  that they had opened in a new location with a bigger and better store.  Aside from all the fabric and notions available to buy they had many beautiful art work quilts on display in the rafters.  Jo was the only one to find something to purchase, a book about t-shirt quilts.

After the quilt store we then drove to the Landing shops because Larche wanted to look for some new walking shoes.  After a nice lunch in the Landing it was then time for an afternoon nap.  Jo and I will go to their motel later this afternoon and we will find some dinner on our way to the theater for the Marty Stuart show.

We all can't believe the traffic along route 76.  I know it was terrible a few years ago with the music show boom but now a lot of the theaters have closed and many of the big name headliners are no longer here but still the traffic jams make it hard to get around unless you know the bypass routes.
