We spent the early part of the day driving through the Ozarks, through a few areas we hadnt been in the immediate area, eventually making our way down to a trout hatchery just beyond the dam. There we learned about their process before releasing the trout into the lake and got to see the fish in various stages of development. Then we headed over to the Army Corps visitors center to learn about the White River, Table Top Lake, and the dam, which was completed in the late 1950's.
Our drive finally brought us back into town where we stopped at Curling Vine Winery....just can't resist a free tour/tasting. The tour wasn't much of a tour, except by video, since the winery is actually located west of St. Louis, but the tasting was great. We tasted at least 10 wines, from dry wines in red and white to sweets. I bought 4 different bottles to bring home....if they make it that far. I have certainly had enough today.
We are headed out to dinner and then to our final show in Branson, Country Jubilee.
The story began with a 5-week journey in a 1997 RV, from Richmond, Va to Utah and back, July 23 through August 27, 2011. The next step included the sale of that RV and the purchase of a larger, classier RV we call Princess. And so our adventures continue.
