Kerry,
Just where do you live? Is it anywhere near Omaha? I was born there and grew up mostly in that area. My cousin lives in Omaha now and I would like to make a last trip back to see them and see how Omaha and Harrison have changed in the 50+ years since I was last there. I spent a lot of time in Harrison and Branson and have probable walked almost every inch of the Ozarks when I was a kid out exploring between my Father's jobs.

Hey Ron,
When the “four lane” bypassed Omaha about a dozen years ago the town felt it. You can get low octane gas, lunch, a tire fixed or mail a letter in Downtown Omaha (maybe a little more stuff). I’m outside the city limits so not technically one of the 169 residents.
I’m used to being away from services. In Central California we were 10 miles from a gas station so we knew what to expect.
On the other hand, Harrison and Branson keep growing.
Give me a shout if you you’re going to make it back for a visit.
Kerry

Kerry,
I sure will. My cousin's name is Richard Sanders and he has two of my old cars. The Cobra that I raced and my 1965 Comet. Give him a call and he and his wife would be happy to meet you. When I was last there the population was 91, so in 50+ years Omaha hasn't grown to much. I knew they had bypassed it with the new 65. But they sure ruined Branson in my opinion.

Great pictures and actually some of the places haven't changed that much since I was last back there. Thanks for posting them as some of them bring back a lot of good memories.
