I have finally gotten around to remembering this game idea, let's see if it is in fact a worthwhile use of my time!
Get ready for NEW surprises and a chance to rack your brain as to "Where in Branson" is that?
You can look at the similar game of Where in The Park (SDC) to see it in action:
2011: http://sdcfans.com/forums/index.php?topic=1478.0 (http://sdcfans.com/forums/index.php?topic=1478.0)
I will post a picture of an item, a sign, or a portion of such, something...anything in Branson. The first person to correctly identify its location/ store/ theater/ restaurant/ hotel....whatever it is, gets a point!
Let's see what happens kids! (I'll start out easy here!)

on the south side of the street..
its parking lot is on the east side of the building.

I believe what sanddunerider is referring to is the Dockers Restaurant, and yes I am confident that he has this one correct. ;)
Yes more smokestack!!!
Hmm what to do... 1/2 point to Sanddunerider for the correct location, 1/2 point to Ozark for the correct name (after the location was given).

I haven't seen any posting from hime for several days? Anybody talked to him lately!?
Thanks for the concern sanddune, I know you are itching to get back into the lead! I have had a few computer issues, coupled with some summer fun, and some ongoing health issues...but Things are hopefully getting sorted out all across the board. Being a teacher, summers sometimes are just busy busy busy even if I haven't even gone on any trips!
Game on, #6

The big red barn of Ozarkland?
Not sure if its Ozark land....but I call it the big red T-shirt barn on 76........ ???
The new chicken restaurant on 76. The one with the big chicken. Even if it's not correct, that place is yummy!

nope
Wow, this one is tough for any non residents!
Is the picture at this location temporary, or something that is more permanent? I'm scratching my head, and thinking hard where this might be. ;D
quilting shop
The baby pictured above ^ just got married if that helps anyone.
I knew in years past kids got married at a young age in the hills, but really... ;)
The formerly Princess Diana Museum.
Wonder why they left only that poster up. All the rest are down.
Yes there is in fact one image left on the far side of the building. Yes in fact the Di museum is closed, but this somehow was overlooked! Go check it out if you don't believe me! It was there a month ago!

Silly..I tell myself all the time I have to check in more. I'm trying more now, just depends on the day and phones. I'm typing almost full speed too! ;)
Good for you. That's good news!
Sorry, I was in Breckenridge CO for a few days, and could not update the score as I had planned!
Yes, the Amish Store...which is a great place for canned items like pickles, and jellies, and a great place for spices!

Downtown Branson, but not a theater to my knowledge.

OK, I feel guilty about my point. Taking a virtual drive down Main Street probably isn't the best way to win. ;)
thats funny! Nope, beta its open season. All's fair in this game! ::)
I saw no foul! I thought it was rather smart to utilize the resources available to you!
That's how I got my 1 point. Wikipedia!
Any new ones coming on this? :D
yes...soon, gimme a few days!

YESSSSSSSSSSSS
Fan of prime rib? Just Kidding! I stayed at the hotel here before we found Paige, didn't eat here though, it'd be tough to convince my vegetarian wife to eat there!
Fan of getting an actual point
I have been going to Branson and SDC since I was little and did not realize how much I do not recognize have the pictures.
Shoot! I guess I'm going to have to start checking after 11:00pm (I am awake anyway), I would of had this one for sure. Next time? :D
