We got home from our trip on Tuesday night. We had spent the weekend in Branson. My favorite part was a beautiful swimming beach we found, called Moonshine Beach. The weather was hot, hot, hot and the beach was full but big enough so that it didn't feel crowded. The water was crystal clear - you can swim in water 10 feet deep and still see the bottom clearly.
Sunday we drove down to Muskogee, Oklahoma for two days. We visited the Five Civilized Tribes Museum and learned about the Trail of Tears. I had heard of it growing up but had no idea what it was all about. How sad that in 1838-1839 the US government forced the Cherokee tribe in southeast United States to march 1000 miles to Indian Territory (now Oklahoma).
