Pilgrims?

No!!! This is a dream come true for 2 big hearted and giving people. They are my parents and this is Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO.
Daddy out admiring the horses and probably on his way to visit the blacksmith or the potter. Mother and Daddy helped their basket teacher, Robbie, with her booth at the City. They packed up her van in Kansas one weekend, helped her set up in the City the next and went back later to help Robbie with her booth and to take it all down. Here Mother is giving a tutorial to whomever wants to wander by the booth. Getting to watch crafters at work is one of the charms of the City. I think Mother said that Robbie sold around 200 baskets. 4 of which were ones Mother had made. Those are genuine smiles! Silver Dollar City is a charming place that holds good memories for me.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!

OK so that previous comment might look bad since I didn't sign my name and it came up with Charles' user name. :) I am used to leaving comments on facebook now and having them automatically come up in my name. Just thought I would clarify for anybody else seeing this. :)Kristen
