Visiting Chris Jones

Delton's son, Chris, recently moved to Arkansas. We were able to visit him during our stay in Branson. Branson is only 2 hours from Bela Vista, Arkansas, where Chris lives.

We had a real nice sunny day for our visit and playing golf was the perfect thing to do. We got up early (poor Joni couldn't sleep in) and got to the golf course for a 9:30 am tee time.

Chris lives in his 5th wheel in an RV park. Delton has a golfing buddy who is also staying in the same RV park as Chris - Bill Putman (pictured with red shirt). We met Bill in Fun Valley, Colorado and Delton has played with him many times. The 4 of us got together for the game.

The course was beautiful with lush fairways, water all over and rolling hills.

After our golf match, we had a delicious Bar-B-Que diner with Chris and then headed back to Branson. We wanted to get back before it got dark - there are alot of rolling hills and curves in the Ozarks and it's better to drive during sunlight.
Then, a week later, we decided to go to Bentonville with our motor home. We stayed in the same park as Chris stays in and parked right next to him. Chris and Delton played golf 2 days in a row - in the rain. Golf lovers!
We enjoyed our time with Chris. It was like living next to him or 3 days.
