Silver Dollar City

We have never been to Silver Dollar City, but it was a favorite of our daughters.  So this trip we decided to check it out.  They were having a Harvest Festival and honoring Cowboys of American.


















As many of you know, Bob and I have been on diets.  We have done pretty well, Bob lost 15 lbs and I have lost 13 lbs.  We took two weeks off our diet while we were visiting my sister, but had been back on the routine again now for a few weeks.  Well the bakery here was beyond temptation.


There were lots of old building that had been moved her from all over Missouri. This was a small chapel where they had sing along with old hymns.


An old school house and bell.  But it was built here when the Beverly Hillbillies was filmed here. 

















The old fire stove made me glad I didn't teach back then.

















There was a blacksmith and a woodworking shop. Millie and Larry, Bob is thinking of joining you in Woodworking this winter.  He was checking out tools here at a shop. May need some suggestions for tools for Christmas.


















Also a cooperage.


There was lots of entertainment. We saw a cowboy singer who was very good. And a trio called Pure Heart, that did gospel.


There was a horse trainer and a beautiful painted horse. Jackie, my friend would love this.  Sorry I don't know what kind of horse this was.  It was some type of mix but boy was it beautiful

















and smart.


There was also many crafts, quilts, leather, and my favorite this cooper artist.


It was a fun filled day, we didn't half of the park.  We'll save the rest for another visit.
