A Great Day With Topeka Tom and Topeka Barb

We met at Silver Dollar City and then went over to check out Sunterra's Plantation at Fall Creek, where they are staying. It is a hodgepodge of a resort.

Then we went to Point Royale to check it out and find the unit/house they will be in in November. Point Royale is also a hodgepodege, but a nicer hodgepodge.

Then we hit the Pizza Hut in Branson West and it was excellent.

Today they are coming out to give us their opins on our new lot and dock and our building plans.

A conglomeration that appears to have had no forethought, no rhyme nor reason, and that could have been done better.

from http://dictionary.reference.com/

hodge·podge ( P ) Pronunciation Key (hjpj)
n.
A mixture of dissimilar ingredients; a jumble.

hodgepodge

n 1: a motley assortment of things [syn: odds and ends, oddments, melange, farrago, ragbag, mishmash, mingle-mangle, hotchpotch, omnium-gatherum] 2: a theory or argument made up of miscellaneous or incongruous ideas [syn: patchwork, jumble]

Both are appropriate definitions.

That's exactly what Tom said yesterday, that it is exactly the Ozarks planning and construction I talk about.

I'm just paraphrasing, but Barb said something like, "When I go to a resort, I do not want to have a campground directly across the road in the same resort."

Today we checked out the dock and new lot and then sat and watched birds at our feeders while we were feeding ourselves.

Tom and Barb just left our place, heading for a preview show at their beloved Fairfield.

Their guests arrive tomorrow and the rest of the week will be Bransonfest.

Tom made a list of stuff to bring back in May to help us with our various projects.
