MISSOURI IS FULL OF POSSIBILITIES!

A FUN WEEKEND IN MISSOURI

Brian brings up a rock from 25 feet down for my flower garden……see the rock formations below them….beautiful water that day.
Thanks Brian!!!!! It is now a fixture in my garden with your name on it and the date of your scuba certification!
Congratulations on a job well done…next will be diving in the ocean with Grandpa John!!!!!!!


As we drove to the southwest part of Missouri this last weekend, I enjoyed the beautiful view of the changing of the trees. I had to remember that this drive was to do something that very few would even imagine possible in Missouri at this time of the year…..scuba diving.

Most go to the warm sunny locations of the Caribbean to partake in this sport, but not us this weekend. We traveled to the beautiful Table Rock Lake in southwest Missouri. The weather was terrific, temperature in the 70's and the water great.

The dives took place by the Table Rock Lake Dam. In some places the water was clear enough to see the beautiful rock formations below. There are so many different things that you can enjoy in this beautiful state. This weekend at Branson, which is where Table Rock Lake is located, it was the Fall Festival at Silver Dollar City. And there are a variety of shows that are located in Branson, and of course the boating and fishing.

However we chose to spend the weekend with our scuba friends, as our grandson and his girlfriend completed their scuba certification with their open water dives. It was such a delight to watch them become familiar with a sport that rates with my husband – also a scuba diver.



This was a great weekend with great friends, and of course the grandson. He did a fantastic job!

Missouri is so full of possibilities for weekend excursions….some close to home, some a couple of hours away…take advantage of them!!!!
