A bridge over untroubled waters. Posted by Picasa

Notice

Blogger and Picasa seem to have some problems and I am unable to post pictures currently on this blog but can post on my Harley Dad blog. To see pictures please go to http://www.harleydad1.blogspot.com/'

In order to protect against spammers, those who publish are limited evidently on posting pictures.

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.

HarleyDad.

Peppercorns Posted by Picasa

The parking lot is full of cars belonging to tourists. I suspect the locals eat elsewhere. Posted by Picasa

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!"
