Just Like a Fall Day!

The weather has gone directly from summer temps  in the 90s and above to cool, damp and the mid-60s or below. Will it stay this way? Who knows - certainly not the TV weatherman...


No complaints from us. We had the perfect day to visit Silver Dollar City during the National Harvest Festival. Completely different from the last time we stopped by Silver Dollar City when it was so hot it felt as if our shoes were sinking into the asphalt...



The cool temps and the lovely fall decorations at SDC certainly had us believing that fall is really here.  Jerri got a roller coaster fix, we saw the Birds of Prey show, listened to some music, saw lumberjack competitions, artisans and crafters weaving baskets, glass blowing, and such. And all without breaking a sweat. We had a wonderful day in the Ozarks!

With the cooler temps, the dogs are friskier but, sadly, the tomato plant is winding down. It is still producing tomatoes, but they are getting less frequent and smaller in size. The outdoor pools at the campground are now closed and due for draining this week. It really is sad to say good-bye to summer...
