Thanks for the kind words, Martin and Craig.

Woodster, you stayed at the farmhouse, yes? I didn't, since there the water was out and there was no air conditioning and the temps were at triple digits. I stayed at a hotel, but was surprised at how expensive Harrison was (I suppose it is due to it's proximity to Branson...plus the area is beautiful).

The Holiday Inn wanted $90 (plus 20% tax). I stayed at Motel 8. It was $61, including tax. The Hallways were a bit musty but the room was not bad at all...very clean. The only hard part about the whole trip was the 11 hour ride back that didn't end until 2 in the morning.
