Fall Break, Day 2 & 3

Day 2

Fall breaks go quick and considering we had to take off to make this happen, then we really had to make the best use of time... Which means I forgot to post here.

As noted previously, day one was a day to relax and enjoy being back at Lilley's Landing.

Day 2 was fishing.  We all went together and rented a 24' Tri-toon boat and enjoyed fishing Taneycomo.  And the fish were biting, too!

Taneycomo is beautiful in the fall, and the views of changing leaves from the water were magical.  

After our time on the water, it was back to our cabin for Dad's stew, a bit of walking around the resort, and a relaxing evening.  

This is one of our favorite places.

Day 3

Today was my birthday, so we went to Branson and did some shopping at Dick's 5&10, and then had lunch at The White River Fish House.  It is a unique restaurant in that it floats on the waters of Taneycomo.  Steph and I had Trout Almondine and Sadie had shrimp (of course!).

Then some shopping at Bass Pro and Sadie got a new rod.  

Then back to Lilley's, and Sadie practiced with the new rod and fished for a few.  

Hot dogs for supper and birthday cake, and a bit of visiting with Phil and Marsha, the owners.  

We love this place!  It has been too long!  We will be back soon, no doubt!

Fall Break, Day 1

There was a time when we tried to take a fall break by going to one of our favorite places - Lilley's Landing!

But it has been awhile since we were able, but this year we planned it again.

So after work we struck out for Missouri

We arrived around 10:45, got unpacked, and settled in.  Not much to report.

Day 2.

It was cold this morning, but that made for an awesome sunrise and time for coffee on the porch.  The river was beautiful as always.

Then to town for lunch at Danna's and a few groceries at Walmart, including some tackle. Also, Kringles Christmas Store.

Then back to the cabin for a nap and a bit of resort time, and a relaxing evening.  So Nice!

Cold Mornings!

Today is the first truly cold morning of this fall season, and it is lovely!

Coffee on the porch and a few hours of work today, and then it is off for a short fall break.  

Brandon, Missouri - here we come!
