Missoura

Here are some pictures from our recent trip to Missouri. Phil and I joined my parents there for a visit with my Great Aunts and Uncles. We had a great time, but hoo boy was it hot and humid! I didn't mind a bit when the pilot on our flight home reported gray skies and low 60's in Seattle :)

This is a view of Springfield as we flew in:



This is the sun setting across the street from Aunt Hannah and Uncle Kenneth's farm in Brighton:


Well I got me a fine wife I got me a fiddle, When the suns comin up I got cakes on the griddle, Life ain't nothin but a funny funny riddle, Thank God I'm a country boy!


Moo! My Uncle Kenneth's beloved cattle:


The big red barn on the Corbin's farm in Willard:


Got me a new boyfriend at Bass Pro:


Feeding the coi at the Japanese Walking Garden in Springfield:


The Showboat Branson Belle, ain't she a beauty?


My giddy aunts boarding the Branson Belle:


"Yes, de-ah, that's what I said...it's hotter than 700 hells in Missoura this aftah-noon and if someone doesn't bring me a refreshment I dare say I might faint"


"Lord above, I do declare I must have fainted on account of the heat!"


Aunt Hannah and Uncle Bud, my dear grandma's youngest siblings:


Great trip, wish we could have stayed longer!
