Took this picture from a overlook place, it might not look good any bigger since I had to zoom so much. This is the Infinity Room, extending an unsupported length of 218 feet and soaring 156 feet above the valley floor.


That's me at the end of the Infinity room as far as we was allowed to go.

Me just before going in.


Bill just before going in....



A amaryillis that is growing in the infinity room. With all the windows they should grow good. It has over 3000 windows in it.


A orchid....


Just a few of the dolls in the house I think they had one or two of about every kind made.


Can you guess the price on this gas pump? 11.9 cents a gallon. Wish we could find that now to fill the motor home.


The worlds largest working carousel and not one horse on it.
We had planned to take it easy today since we have been so tired from having to get up so early. But then decided to go on to the house on the rock and maybe just do one or two of the tours. They offer three, so we got our tickets and started out. We got there about noon, left at 5 pm and boy are we tired. We walked a lot, rested some, stopped for a slice of pizza and kept going. We was tired and decided to leave after tour number two and so we ask on of the ladies, where we would come in if we decided to leave and come another day for tour three. She told us someone would bring us to our starting point then we would go from there. Bill ask her how far that would be and she said oh as much or more then you have already walked today except you will not have all the up and down you have had today. So after that we said we might as well keep going. Why come later have to walk as far then start in on the last tour. That is one big place and its up ramps, down ramps, walking on brick uneven sidewalkes, some place you had to duck or you would bump your head. But it was good and we saw a lot. I can't believe all they have in there and still working on some of it. Well the pictures are posted and hope this turns out ok... enjoy

In WI now


This is one of the door's to the little movie they showed. What does it look like to you? I thought they were cute......


This is the wall of Spam, it has nearly 3,500 cans of Spam. At one can per day, this wall could feed you for almost 10 years...Do you like Spam? I did not know they make so many kinds. We bought some bacon and southwest. The lady in the gift shop told us she uses the bacon one in place of bacon on BLT's. The southwest one is made for the southwest and it is hot. They also make a garlic for Asia and you can only get it in Asia or the gift shop.


This is me helping the farmer feed the pigs..


This is Bill heading for the front door.

Well we have been to Forest City, IA getting some stuff done on the motor home. Had to get a new convection/microwave put in. Taking the old one back to Leavenworth to see if it can be fixed. Also had other work done, they found we had some crushed wires and propane tube that got cut or crushed when they worked on the slide last time, so had to fix that. They took the rear cap off and worked there also. But maybe now all will work good for us.
Tomorrow we are going on one of the tours of the House on the Rock so will try and do more tomorrow with pictures. They have three tours and we will do one or two a day. I think it will be real good...Well more tomorrow since I have Internet again. For a while.
That is another story as to why we don't have it.
We got to Forest City on May 14th and left today the 18th.
While there we went to Austin, MN to see the Spam museum. Kind of fun we did learn things about spam. Will post some pictures and tell you what they are.

Leaving tomorrow

Well we are still in Branson, went to Imax two days in a row. Seen one about Fighter Pilots training for war and the other was Deep Sea. They were both real good. Really liked the Sea one the best sure learned a lot about the sea if I could only remember all of it. LOL
Been on the look out for a new computer and can't find what we need. It seems like the new one's will not work with our air card. They have to have the Express card and we have another kind. So don't know what we will do as of yet.

Went shopping and got the babies some clothes for Christmas. Bill got him some shirts and I got me some pants. Been working on some things for Christmas and hope everyone likes them ok. Haven't taken any pictures while here or went to any shows or Silver Dollar City. So nothing else new so bye for now.
