Branson Talk / Microbreweries

« on: May 30, 2018, 02:55:44 PM »

I enjoy visiting microbreweries and was thinking about making a trip as a single next week to Branson.  I have been here a lot but just realized that there are no microbreweries in town !  Someone tell me this is not so. I know Springfield has Mothers but come on folks how has this trend passed Branson by ?

In the past I have had trouble finding any place that even carries a good craft beer selection. Reeds Spring Pizza Company has been my best shot so far. So, recommendations on places that carry a good craft beer selection ?

Branson Talk / Uber in Branson

« on: November 29, 2017, 07:19:51 AM »

I saw a couple of news blips that Uber was now operating in Branson. Has anyone used them yet ? Also I was wondering if they ran out to SDC ? Which also brings up the question. Has or will SDC designate a Uber or Lyft designated drop off spot ?

Random Talk / Kayaking in Branson area

« on: June 09, 2017, 01:02:50 PM »

I have never been a lake person even though it looks fun. But, I just recently got a new Kayak. Just wondering if anyone has any experience on either Table Rock or Taneycomo ?  Obviously it would have to be in a quiet cove. Id hate to put in at state park marina or another crowded place. Any suggestions welcome.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Times

« on: November 04, 2015, 07:09:27 AM »

I got the times a couple days ago and there was a little blurb about wanting your Email address this year. It said something to the extent that only season pass holders will get exclusive Birthday surprises and guest ticket offers in 2016 via Email. Maybe a few more perks for those of you who are season ticket holders. Just wondering if they are thinking about eliminating the Times flyer?

Other Parks / Resort available in Gatlinburg

« on: October 02, 2015, 02:23:33 PM »

I am going to post this here if it is OK. Not sure whether selling something is OK or not. If not please delete it. Try it here first since a lot of you go to Gatlingburg also.

I have a 1 Bedroom condo available from May 16 to checkout on May 21st 2016.

I traded into this from RCI and now have found out I have a nephew getting married in Florida that weekend, so I cannot use it.

Looking for $550.00 for the 5 days. I will put your name on the reservation at my cost. I prefer Paypal. Half down and then the rest when I send you the confirmation with your name on it.

Let me know by PM if you are interested.

Other Parks / Universal is going to be like Disney soon.

« on: May 28, 2015, 03:01:21 PM »

With the addition of Harry Potter and the expansion of the parks long with new resort hotels Universal is getting to be a week long affair just like Disney. Now they are adding this.

I had sworn off theme parks for awhile but maybe I will change my mind.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Show Lovers Pass

« on: December 06, 2014, 07:54:47 AM »

We had not planned any trips during Old Time Christmas, but some friends of ours talked my wife into meeting them at SDC next weekend. Will be using their Baf's for the entry. Our kids are also meeting us there. We never have bought a show lovers pass, and I really do not care for the 2 major Christmas shows , but will be forced to set through them to help make the spouse happy. Looks like it will be in the 60's next weekend so I expect the place will be packed. I really do not want to waste my good riding time waiting in 1 hour lines for the shows so I think we will invest in a show lovers pass.

Question is
 
Is the pass only good for Dickens and Wonderful life ? That is what the website alludes to. I thought the Saloon was included, but am not sure.
