More sights and sounds from The Ozarks


The Gravette High School Marching band with the Gravette Fight Song
!

The 4-Wheeler portion of the Gravette Day parade.
!

Riding up to do the chores in the old red pick-up.
!

How now brown cow
!

Cow chewing his cud.
!

One of the tamer roads from Gravette, Arkansas to Branson, Missouri. I grew up driving on these roads and learned to get some pretty good speed and "G's" out of these pig trails. This vide doesn't half do the real thing justice.
!

Just some of the goodness of Silver Dollar City's entertainment. Grab yourself some corn and some pone!
!

I got a crappy seat but this is the new Powder Keg coaster at Silver Dollar City. A linear induction motor launch coaster, I only got a few seconds of this due to the fear of losing my precious Skinny Tie camera. I guess I was kinda warned. Notice the neat track adjustment to the launch track.
!

CUTE ALERT!! Next to Japanese cats with hair bows and one eared bunnies, this is some pretty awesome shit....and it's in Branson!
!

One part tea cups, one part slip n' slide...all fuckin' crazy!!! This was BEYOND A DOUBT the most awesome ride at Silver Dollar City!!!

Thanks for sharing the pics and videos from SDC. While watching those I realized it's been 10 years since I've been there. Oh how I miss that place!
