Branson Bound
October 2017
Branson? Really? Not exactly on our
bucket list, it morphed out of a generous invitation from Marjorie’s sister
Mary & hubbie Jeff to join them for a getaway using their Marriot Vacation Club
points. First choice Hilton Head unavailable, also Washington and NYC. Then
Mary advised that everyone age 65+ should visit Branson MO. Hadn’t heard of
that gerontological pilgrimage , but M & J have enjoyed a couple of stays
there, so we’ll trust their judgment. The guys can play some golf, the ladies explore
shopping, plus many shows and other tourist fun from which to choose. We can
fly to their home in Kansas City using our frequent credit-card United miles,
then drive south to Branson. Not much Fall color around Albany yet, maybe we’ll
see some in Missouri.
