Lake and Bransonbelle
Winter is here. The tourists flow is now coming to a trickle. It was a great weekend to come to the Lake.
Branson Landing is coming along.
Branson Creek is putting in a new golf course honoring Payne Stewart. In addition there is a new condo area being developed and golf course called Murder Creek at Branson Creek.
The sunsets are still great here and the Bransonbelle dropped by Emerald Pointe for a visit.

Dino's Christmas Show
DINO'S CHRISTMAS SHOW
Tri-Lakes Christmas Center
Last night we met up with the Senior Saints from CCUMC in Joplin and accompanied them to Dino's Christmas show. Dino is the performer who is the star of the show. He and his wife Cheryl present a lovely show. There is wonderful piano playing by Dino who out- Liberace's Liberace. The costumes are lovely and the music is even better.
Dino is very personable and took time at the intermission to sign photos patiently. Dino as a young man was a pianist for the famous woman evangelist and healer, Kathryn Kuhlman.
Dino will be in Carnegie Hall around December 15.
Dino's show does emphasise Christ at Christmas and Dino makes a graphic and bold statement of the Plan of Salvation.
I would strongly recommend this show. My only difficulty with it is that I can still not get used to singing Christmas carols when it is 70 degrees outside and it is two weeks before Thanksgiving. I guess if this is the worst thing I can say, it ain't too bad.
As Dino would say: "Opah!"

Dogwood Canyon
Dogwood Canyon
Just outside Branson is Dogwood Canyon. Dogwood Canyon is a nature preserve and is brought to you by the same wonderful people that bring to the area Big Cedar and Bass Pro Shops.
The Canyon is wonderful. You can take a tram ride pulled by a truck and go through the preserve and even see the bison and elk in the "high country." A better way if you can do it is to pay less and walk through the area below or rent or bring a bicycle. The cost of a walking-hiking ticket is $8.95.
On Sunday I motorcyled down to Dogwood Canyon and took some pictures. Some of those pictures are pictured on my other blog Hacienda del HarleyDad which can be found at http://www.harleydad1.blogspot.com/
However there are plenty are pictures so I have posted some more above.
If you have an opportunity and want to see Nature in a slightly manicured but beautiful fashion, a visit to Dogwood Canyon should be at the top of the list. I was there in the Spring, have been now in the fall, and hope to go and freeze myself for more pictures when snow is on the ground.

Fly Fishing on Taneycomo
Just below the Table Rock Dam is Lake Taneycomo. The Lake (also known as the White River) is a great place for fly fishing. You will find it near the Chateau on the Lake.
Go to the Fish Hatchery at the foot of the Dam. There you can make your way to the River and fish using flies or artificial lures only.
Above are pictures taken Sunday afternoon of the fisherman.
One fisherman caught a large trophy size brown trout while I was there. Others would catch and throw back.
Who knows, it looked like such fun that I might go fishing there sometime, and I don't even fish.

Peppercorn's
Peppercorn's Restaurant
On Sunday morning Brokerbelle and HarleyDad decided to live dangerously. Taking our lives in our hands, we went for breakfast in a restaurant we've only had lunch or dinner in before. We went to Peppercorn's. It is on the Corner of 76 right at the corner when you turn into Tanger Mall.
It was an all you can eat buffet. Breakfast does not measure up to the quality of the evening and lunch buffets, but "two out of three ain't that bad!"
