First thing in the morning was a photoshooting at the townsquare in Gainesville. There a fondraising run for breast cancer was going to take place and the local newspaper journalist editor was there with her camera. We were greeted as if we had always been there, then the pictures were taken and the run had started. We continued our tour, through this seemingly endless country and the Mark Twain National Forest. 
In the middle of nowhere we found a little hot-dog place, "The Smothered Mutt" run by two cheerful ladies. They had only started 6 months ago and to our surprise, as Ronnie told us that it works out very well! Again one of this great spirits here, they were out of work, but risked their savings to start this business and it works. We envied them for their little paradies. And, we got the best coleslow ever served to us on this journey. 
Later in the evening we reached Branson, the music and show capital of the middle. It has a strip as long as Las Vegas, but everything is much smaller, no casinos but more entertainment. We got a hotelroom for two nights, including a ticket to a "American Legends in Concert" show. (for 179 Dollars!!!) So we rushed to shower and off to the show, which was fantastic. Bette Middler, The Blues Brothers, Elvis Presley and more sung and it sounded and looked very real!
We had a lot of fun, Katrin was even invited onstage with the Blues Brothers. The evening ended in a pub nearby, where we danced with our tired legs to good old Country music!
