An Average Day in Andy Williams World where red sweaters never go out of style

The title of this post best sums up my first full day in Branson, with some Champagne thrown in....

So here are the highlights in a nutshell.


Today was Welknotes 10th Anniversary Luncheon at Andy Williams Moon River Grille, where I got to meet my friends from Welknotes.....

....such as my friend Art Oliver with the lovely and talented Ralna English


After that, it was back to the resort for a quick swim and relaxing in the hot tub at Splash-O-Rama and then back to the Andy Williams compound, this time at the Moon River Theatre where the icon himself did his Christmas Show like the ones you used to see on television.

From what I saw tonight, he still has it.

Then it was back to the Moon River Grille for dinner and a nightcap, and musical entertainment by Gail Lennon and the Lennon Brothers.


Now it's time for bed, and more Branson adventures to follow!

Weekend at the Lennons

I told you yesterday that November is going to be a busy month for me...

So while everyone has election day fever, let's take a break from it so I can share some exciting news.

It's official, I will be in Branson from November 11 to the 15th for a family reunion.

A Lennon Family Reunion


No, I did not discover on ancestry.com that I am a long lost cousin...but on Sunday, the Welk Resort in Branson as scheduled is supposed to have the largest gathering of America's Favorite Musical Family with us fans invited!

On Friday, as a member of Welknotes, I'll be taking part in their 10th anniversary celebrations as well. It will be a great chance to meet the friends I made from the eight years being a member of this fine Yahoo! Group.

And on Saturday, will be seeing Kathy, Janet, Mimi and the legendary Tony Orlando on stage for their Christmas show!


And with all this going on, I'll be blogging and taking pictures for all to enjoy.

Hope to see you there!

Ten years of Welknotes

This month marks the 10th anniversary of Welknotes.


I first joined this fine Yahoo! Group back in 2002, and had the pleasure of making so many new friends who share one thing in common.

Lawrence Welk and his Musical Family

I'm very happy to extend my congratulations to the group's founder and moderator, Judy Shaw for an amazing ten years of bringing people together and keeping the Maestro's legacy alive.

So come along and visit Welknotes, or better yet....become a member today!

They also have a terrific companion webpage filled with pictures too.
