postheadericon Cheri June-8-11

It is another beautiful day. We left about 9:30am on the motorcycle and headed to Camdenton. There is a quilt shop there we missed the other day. It is 5 miles south of Camdenton and we had to go back onto another dirt road. It was located in a personal residence. It was a nice little shop. I bought a kit to do a throw. It was fun looking around in there. Gay took some pictures of a few quilts hanging on the walls to use as reference when I make the floating box quilt.

We stopped at DQ for a quick hamburger & shake for lunch and then headed for Bridal Cave. It was not far from where we were. It was $13 for the 1 hour tour. It is a steady 60 degrees in there.

Among the attractions in this cave are the Bridal Chapel, (they had 71 weddings in the cave in one day), and the Mystery Lake. The cave is rated as one of the most scenic caves in America.

We squeezed through small openings and walked through low 4 ft tunnels. It was an amazing tour.

On the way back to the 5th wheel we stopped at Wal-Mart to pick up a few items and then Gay dropped me off at the quilt shop near the campground. I was able to find a sewing machine foot I have been looking for and 1 yard of material I found interesting looking to use in some future project.

We showered and changed to get ready to meet Pam, Mike, Jenny & Mason at El Jimador, a Mexican restaurant on Hwy 54. The food was good and it had a very nice atmosphere.

We purchased tickets for the country & western show at the Main Street Music Hall, so we made our way over there and walked around in the shops till show time.

Once again, the show was good. They did neat impressions of famous singers, the comedy skits kept us laughing and all the singers had great voices.

We got home by 10:15pm and were ready for bed.
