    It is just a little ways out of town, as I am sure you know. It is well worth your time. If you have any religious leanings at all the holy land tour at the passion play is well worth the cover charge.

    Try this one in Nebraska.

    Off I-80 between Lincoln and Omaha.

    Holy Family Shrine

    That's a water feature down the center of the sidewalk. Splits and runs through the chapel.

    When I redo this backyard, I'm going to incorporate something similar. Sans chapel.

    if any of you guys go there, the one who DOESN'T call me for a meeting is a frozon snot boat sailor!

    Why does Eureka Springs, Ark have a statue of what appears to me to be a British WWl soldier, complete with Enfield?

    I stayed in a big old historic hotel there, a little musty, but the town had great, colorful Victorian homes. We rented bicycles to ride around town.

    A couple of days later we went scuba diving in Beaver Lake, crystal clear and a great time.

    PS. I've floated most of the rivers down there like the Current and Jacks Fork, etc.

    regards,
    Waddie
