We park in the center in front of the old Kmart.

Streets.The Clio Police keep an eye on our cars while we are gone.

More Trips I’m considering for 2026… or beyond!
Looking for input…
I usually plan 1 trip to Branson each year. I have, in the past, alternated between a fall trip and then the
next year offered a trip during the Christmas season. Some people seem to prefer slightly warmer weather
in September and not so much Christmas all at once. In 2024, we did a Branson Christmas Trip in
November. It sold out and we had a wait list. When planning for 2025, I was thinking it would be a fall trip.
However, I received many calls asking if it would be a Christmas trip in 2025 because so many were on a
wait list for 2024 or people couldn’t go that year. So, I was swayed and offered a Branson Christmas trip
again this year. It has sold out and once again we have a wait list. I am already getting some calls about
offering a Branson Christmas trip in 2026 because the Sight and Sound Theater is bringing back A Miracle
of Christmas in 2026. So, here I am trying to decide what to do!
I was leaning toward offering the fall trip in 2026 since it has been 2 years of Christmas in a row. Since
I try to listen to the wishes of the travelers, I’m asking for your thoughts. For those of you who like going to
Branson, please let me know what you’d prefer for 2026.
Branson in the fall – September of 2026
Christmas in Branson – November of 2026
Offer both next year – if there has been a wait list the past 2 years, maybe there is enough interest
for two trips.

Other trip plans and questions I’ve been getting…

The Victoria Playhouse in Petrolia will be announcing their 2026 Season in November. So, yes I will likely
be offering many of their shows next year.

Going to Purple Rose in Chelsea is also something we do each year depending on the shows. Most of
their shows have a content warning such as * Contains adult language and subject matter. I do include
this in my newsletter so you are aware before signing up for a trip.

Places people are asking about include the following:
Remember I can’t go everywhere every year, but I put your ideas in my future planning folder…

Savanah, Georgia
East Coast – Martha’s Vineyard; Cape Cod; Newport, Rhode Island; etc
(I am currently working on finalizing Philadelphia and Baltimore for 2026 – 250 America)
New York City
Nova Scotia
Nashville (although we are going there this month) some are asking for the Sampler trip we did in the past.

Let me know your thoughts…. Thank – you!
