We spent some time at the pool on our first day. We planned to go to Silver Dollar City Tuesday and Wednesday.
Ahh, but when you plan a vacation to Missouri in August you don't think that the amusement park will be closed, but it was! It was closed Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday to redecorate for their fall theme! What a bummer. Time to change plans! We decided to go geocaching on Tuesday. Bob found several hidden near city parks in Branson. Here, Chris and DeAnna check their loot!
Unfortunately, the first playground was still covered with dew and we couldn't play. Bob found a box turtle near the cache and brought it out of the woods for us to see.

The second playground was dry and other children were already playing. There was a bridge to cross from the parking lot to get to the playground. We just had to stop to look for fish.
Wednesday we went to Shepherd of the Hills Fish Hatchery. The fish raised here are released in the river and Table Rock Lake. These fish are retired brood stock.
There were so many fingerlings that Chris and DeAnna couldn't count them!
It was fun feeding the fish!
The two towers behind Chris and DeAnna are cooling towers. The trout like the water at 51 degrees!
We had a great time and were looking forward to finally going to Silver Dollar City!

Okay Bob, why did you not get your picture taken with the dance hall gals? Hoss and I are wondering. Cecil
Joyce wouldn't let me!
