It looks like a fun trip. I wonder how far it is from Branson? There sure would be a ot of things to do there. The lake itself, looks a bit like the lake where I live with lots of little tributaries branching off. However, here there are mostly private owners, and not much of a tourist scene, most of the people who come down are just those who come down for a weekend from the cities. I bet you will love Lake of the Ozarks! I think you will have a ball!
@K E Gordon Branson is basically due south of Lake of the Ozarks, a pretty "fur" piece, I'm guessing about 100 miles. Frank
