Weekend at Lake of the Ozarks

Scott and I decided to get away for the weekend. We both needed a break from life as we know it. Seeing as its October in Missouri, there wasn't many good touristy places to visit. We did decide to go to Lake of the Ozarks for two nights. Scott's brother-in-law is a police officer down there and we were able to stay at his place. We didn't really have anything planned but we had a great time. It was nice to just relax and not worry about anything. We didn't get to leave St. Louis until about 7:30pm after I got off work. Needless to say, Friday night didn't hold much excitement for either of us. Saturday morning we got up and ate a delicious breakfast at Denny's. It was completely and utterly terrible for me, but it was absolutly worth it! Next was time for a little shopping! YAY! I got Scott to go shopping a little with me. Although, it was really more for him. He needed to go shoe shopping, so that was the true goal. Although I did slip into a few stores, especially the Cosmetic Company!! We then had some ice cream and headed to play putt-putt golf! I have played many times but this was Scott's first time ever.

We battled back and forth on score and he finally beat me by one stroke on the last hole! It was a great game and we had a lot of fun! After that game it was time for a nap. We ate dinner at Outback Steakhouse for Scott's birthday. Then on Sunday, we went and had a late breakfast at Shoney's and headed home. I did stop in Fulton, MO where I used to live many years ago and drove around town and looked at how it had changed and many things that were still the same!
