Branson Wed Sept14

Today was our first rainy day in the Branson area.  The temp has dropped about 30 degrees from the high of 99 yesterday.  Unfortunately Vicky and I have picked up some Missouri germs that our systems haven't had before and we have sore throats and dry cough.  We are going through Hals to soothe our throats and carrying on.

Today we went to two shows.  In the morning we went to see the Brett Family--Mom/Dad/28 yr old daughter and 26 yr old son.  A younger son is doing church work in South America.  Again,  an extremely talented family.  The daughter is a classical pianist/dancer/choreographer---Dad has a beautiful tenor voice and plays many instruments--Mom has a beautiful voice and writes and arranges music---and the son is the consummate entertainer---sings,  dances, comedy and seems to be the main focus of the entertainment.  We enjoyed this show immensely.

This is the son doing a couple of his routines.  An extremely talented young man.

In the evening we went to see the Dutton Family.  Again, superb entertainment.  Mom/Dad/5 of 7 adult children and they even managed to fit in most of their 23 grandchildren ranging in age from 14 yrs to 2 months.

This family finished in the top 10 of America's Got Talent a number of years ago.  Hard to believe that one family can play such a variety of instruments.  Again,  one of the sons seems to be the main focus of the comedy side and dancing.  I think these are the children that were ADHD as children.  They have so much energy



Today two more shows.  Let the entertainment continue!!!

  1. It was a rainy night in Branson,
    Lord, I believe it's rainin' all over the world.
    Could you find out a little bit more about the son who is doing church work in South America? It sounds like he may be creating miracles while his family is singing and dancing it's life away. I think that I've seen the feller in the last picture. Correct me if I'm wrong but, is his name Billy Graham Jr?
