I spent a lot of time in Harrison and Branson and have probable walked almost every inch of the Ozarks when I was a kid out exploring between my Father's jobs.

Hey Ron,

When the “four lane” bypassed Omaha about a dozen years ago the town felt it. You can get low octane gas, lunch, a tire fixed or mail a letter in Downtown Omaha (maybe a little more stuff). I’m outside the city limits so not technically one of the 169 residents.


I’m used to being away from services. In Central California we were 10 miles from a gas station so we knew what to expect.

On the other hand, Harrison and Branson keep growing.

Give me a shout if you you’re going to make it back for a visit.
