Ole the good ole days, when i was working with Bass Pro Shop Corp Office the Branson Location was one of my first jobs.

I always laugh. When I was doing outdoor writing I heard through the grapevine about the Branson store and the PR guy for BPS told me know they are not going to build one.

Then the very first project to start design years later was Branson. how funny then I got promoted and with that new job was very first project Branson.

I can remember when John L didn't want elk in the store and that location represent Arkansas as well as Missouri so agrue with my boss and the Elk stayed.

Also gather up all the photo for the entire store found the Life Magazine about float fishing the river, the Heston photo up in the clear story the two of the river boats on the truch outside and the one of the power site damn being built no Osha back then. Along with going to Gaston down in Arkansas which the Branson store get it roots and Black Bear Noodling with the Arkansas Game and Fish alot of research to them that store and a lost video of fish the white river. Also their a great spot in Ark that the trout jumping over falls going up stream that is where the fly shop mural is about

Go downtown by the bass pro shop and enjoy the mall area outside. They have a outdoor fountain area in the middle that is called fire and ice and the fountains are shot off to music.

We had a few drinks and watched it a few times pretty cool. They did the show every so often and played Joe Walsh tunes.

Later have fun
