It isn't as attractive to me these days, either. Ever since Branson turned from sleepy backroad hillbilly walnut bowl emporium into the Christian Las Vegas, Tablerock has gotten a bit crazy for my taste. I usually like my rural recreation experiences to be just slightly more rural.  |
Understandable. I didn't realize that you had so many lakes in Missouri. But I'll tell you, I don't really know much, about anything
. I agree that Tablerock is crazy...but it's a family tradition. We've been going there 3-4 times a year since I was about 10. We go along with 5 or so other families and always have a good time. Maybe that's because we add to the crazyness of the lake. Maybe we are the ones that people don't want there?
