Wouldn't you like to know what it would be like to go back in time?! This is an 1880's theme park located near Branson, Missouri, presents six world-class festivals from April through December. The 100-acre park has 12 stage venues, over 40 rides and attractions, 18 award-winning restaurants and 60 shops. I absolutely LOVE going at Christmas time. The Christmas lights are absolutely beautiful!

Eureka Springs was founded in July 1879, and was named by a small group of people, around the "healing springs", as the Indians had called them. This is a fun place to visit. If you do go, check out the haunted Crescent Hotel. They actually have a photo album of pictures that employees and guests have taken of ghosts/orbs. We like to make a day trip to Eureka and go down have lunch and people watch!
