Except for the chiggers...

Camping was great! I spent the weekend with Jessica and Dej at Raystown Lake. Teaching Dej to fish and getting caught in the rain while setting up the tent was priceless. Since coming home, I have been battling the chiggers that seemed to have set up shop on my body. Luckily for me, I had some "Chiggerex Plus" in my first aid kit. I found it a little late, but better late than never. Now I have to deal with the itching and trying to remember not to scratch the itch. All that said, I would gladly do it again, after all it was my baby's first camping trip.

PS Next time I'll use Insect Repellent.

Everybody is Somebody

Everybody is somebody's mother, father, son, daughter, sister, brother, friend... be good to them.

Branson, MO

Another great day spent in Branson, MO. The weather has been perfect all week and since we will be leaving tomorrow, we thought it would be good to get out and experience the "real" Branson. We had lunch in town and then went to the Antique Car Museum. After the museum we went to the most awesome show, "The Acrobats of China". They were amazing and I was on the edge of my seat for most of the two hours. After the show it was time to wind down and get my mind right for the return trip. Well, I have wound down and my mind is right - so I am going to bed.

...but, if you ever have the opportunity to come to Branson, by all means do.

I'm Back!

After a long absence, I have returned. Right now I am in Branson, MO visiting my baby bro and his family. The weather has been great and we have been spending a lot of time on the water.... which reminds me. Please remember to where life jackets this summer, today someone drowned on the lake as they were trying to save someone else... neither had a life jacket.

Anyway, I just wanted to let everyone know that I am fine - I am back and I will posting regularly again. A lot has happened since my last post. I will fill you in later.

Ciao!
