We are now in Elizabethtown, Kentucky for the night. Last night we were in Branson, Missouri and saw The Three Tenors- it was like Phantom of the Opera meets the Ozarks! Very entertaining, great vocal ability and good country humor: lots of trailer park jokes!

It is nice to be back in the trees. We crossed the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers today. Our day began at 4:30 a.m.- trying to beat the heat. but, even that early it was already 84 degrees, and climbed to 102 degrees.  We took Rt. 76 out of Branson then to a windy road, Rt. 160 and then Rt. 60 to get to Elizabethtown. By 3:30 (eastern time) we found a hotel. It was a very long ride. But, tomorrow and Saturday will be shorter days, I hope.

Now, we are watching a severe storm threat in Hardin County which is where we are and hoping it does not hit to hard. The bike is a "sitting duck" in the parking lot!

I haven't taken many pictures for the past couple of days. It was so hot in Branson, over 100 degrees that we didn't walk very far to check it out like we normally would have, but here are a few photos.

We spent most of the afternoon in the pool until show time! It was too hot to do anything else.

King Kong- front and back!

Mt. Rushmore??



The Americana Theatre where we saw the show.

Hopefully we will have cooler weather tomorrow after the storms that just rolled through! We are West Virginia bound.
