Route 66, Oklahoma & Branson, Missouri


On the road again.....

April 20, 2024 - Territory Route 66 RV Park, Hinton, Oklahoma

We actually spent on overnight and drove directly on the original Route 66. It was a bit unsettling to know that the tornado shelter was next to us. Fortunately for us, we avoided the storms that hit them just about a week later. Very quaint little RV park right on Route 66. 





Route 66 - Hinton, Oklahoma

April 21, 2024 - Eufala State Park, Eufala, Oklahoma

On this leg of the trip, it was a lot of driving daily to get back east. This was a very nice state park that we stayed at just for an overnight. As you can see in the video, Tom thoroughly enjoyed the evening by the campfire!  




That's about it for Oklahoma for us!

April 22, 2024 - Mount Magazine State Park, Paris, Arkansas 

This was a beautiful state park with the highest point in Arkansas. We had a picturesque lunch at the Mount Magazine Lodge. 






That afternoon we met our new Airstream camping friends from Canada; Jean & Jane, along with Charles & Diane, who were camping next door to us and were going to the same campgrounds in Memphis and Nashville, just a day later than us!  SO...Much more fun to follow! 😉

April 23 - 25, 2024 - Branson, Missouri  

Off to Branson for 2 days, staying at the Willow Ridge Marriott Vacation Club. Branson is not what I had expected. Very touristy and very family orientated, which is fine but I thought it would have more music options.


We visited the Titanic Museum gift shop for our grandson Cooper who is obsessed with the Titanic!  

We opted to do the Dolly Parton Stampede dinner show which we thought was a bit hokey but was actually enjoyable! 







We also visited historic Branson, Branson Landing and did the Branson Scenic Railway!
