Wow, if you don’t have air conditioning or are working outside in this hot weather I feel for you. After I go out to water all my plants I am so hot I just want to collapse in front of a fan. The swimming hole in Brushy Creek where we used to swim all the time is almost completely dried up, just a narrow ditch of water going through the middle of the creek bed. I don’t think there would even be that much except for the springs that feed the creek.
Bob and I and a couple of our grandkids got stuck in traffic Sunday trying to get to Springfield and decided to take a detour. We took Highway A just past Saddlebrooke, hoping it would connect to a highway near Ozark, but it didn’t. We finally ended up in familiar territory when we came out on Round Mountain Road and connected to H Highway and came out at Chadwick. We were too late for our thing at Springfield so we just shopped a little at Ozark, had pizza and came on home.
I know some people have been asking if the gift shop has any Amish jams or jellies and Dot says they have some in now, and even have some sugarless varieties.
