We had tickets to the evening dinner cruise. We had upgraded our seats so that we could have dinner in the Paddle Wheel Club Room. We arrived at the boarding area around 6:20 or so. We spent the next little bit taking pictures in the garden area. We boarded the huge boat right at 7:00. We were ...

The Shepherd Of The Hills outdoor drama is based on the well known book Shepherd of The Hills. The story is I guess what you would call historical fiction. The drama is complete with sheep, horses, mules, and donkeys. The play also consists of gun fights and the burning of a log cabin. The story...

My husband and I also were able to take the Shepherd of the Hills homestead tour. The tour is a tram ride pulled by a jeep.
