We spent 2 nights at Big Cedar Lodge this week, a gift from our adopted kids, Tim and Robin Gardiner. We combined it with a press pass to Silver Dollar City and the Showboat Branson Belle. These last two are owned by the Herschends, some wonderful Christian people about whom I wrote one of my favorite stories. Read the TPE Silver Dollar City article. Here is my first TPE Blog entry about it.
