FREE ACTIVITIES in BRANSON Ruth and Paul Henning Conservation FREE ACTIVITIES IN BRANSON Ruth and Paul Henning Conservation Area A 1,500+ acre expanse in the Branson area Ozarks, this breathtakingly beautiful conservation area was preserved largely through the generosity of Ruth and Paul Henning. Missouri native, Paul Henning, is best known as the creator of popular 60s-era television programs like “The Beverly Hillbillies,” “Petticoat Junction,” and “Green Acres.” (Fun side note: One of the original “Hillbillies” cars is on display at Branson’s Ralph Foster Museum, and three episodes of the show were shot at Silver Dollar City!) The trails here are ideal for hiking, and include a waterfall, striking outcroppings, crystal clear streams, and benches along the way for sitting. Shepherd of the Hills Fish Hatchery Branson is home to an honest-to-goodness fish hatchery, and it’s great free entertainment for the family! Sitting just below majestic Table Rock Dam, the hatchery produces nearly 400,000 pounds of brown and rainbow trout each year, with 80 percent of the fish released into Lake Taneycomo below the dam. Kids love to watch the fish in the “runs” outside, and inside, you’ll discover a free-admission museum/conservation center. The Hatchery also has nearby trails, great for hiking and seeing area wildlife, and allows access to Lake Taneycomo for fishing. (Interesting side note: When the dam was constructed to control flooding of the White River, it created beautiful Table Rock Lake above, ideal for warm water sports, recreation, and bass fishing, and Lake Taneycomo below, a cold water lake with a river-like appearance, perfect for trout to thrive.) The Shrine of the Holy Spirit You’ll find this tranquil spot on the same property occupied by The Mansion Entertainment Center, located at 189 Expressway Lane near Branson’s Shepherd of the Hills District. The Mansion’s owner had the Shrine constructed to fulfill a spiritual vision, and guests are welcome to enjoy the peaceful landscape for meditation, prayer, or simply to relax and reflect. There are lovely gardens and a fountain, and ample seating that allows for enjoying the beautiful Ozarks’ scenery. (Note: The primary structure on the property can be rented for weddings and other small events - it accommodates approximately 80 people.) Sparky the Trolley One of the best things about the Historic Downtown District of Branson is that you can leave the driving and navigation to Sparky! Made to resemble vintage cable cars (think San Francisco,) there are several trolleys in Branson’s fleet, all making a nice circuit through Downtown, along Branson Landing Boulevard, and up Hamburger Hill (a.k.a. Highway 76/Main Street - it got the meaty moniker from locals due to the three fast-food burger establishments that call it home!) There are several stops to board and deboard, including one at either end of Branson Landing. There’s no charge to ride Sparky, but feel free to tip your helpful driver. Table Rock State Park Located on the shores of Table Rock Lake, this state park is ideal for water activities and other outdoor adventures. In addition, the park is outfitted with a marina so you can easily rent a boat or jet skis. It’s also a great location for camping, picnicking, hiking, mountain biking and more. If you choose to go camping, remember to place your reservation in advance. Spots fill up during the peak lake season! Curling Vine Winery Experience a sparkling tour of winemaking on this free tour, which ends with some fine wine tasting at Curling Vine Winery. The whole family can tour too, as a special grape juice is made just for the kids. Tours depart every 15 minutes and are available year round. While at the winery, visit the gift shop or watch a bottling demonstration. Branson Landing The Branson Landing has a beautiful boardwalk visitors can stroll along while enjoying scenic views and Lake Taneycomo.

  • The Grapes of Wrath: a Retrospect on the Folkish Expression of Justice in Popular Culture and Family
    The Grapes of Wrath: A Retrospect on the Folkish Expression of Justice in Popular Culture and Family by Neville Buch, member of the Classics Books Club, Brisbane Meet Up 25 April 2020 Figure 1: Cover of ‘The Grapes of Wrath’ by John Steinbeck, 1902-1968, By New York: Viking - image, page, Fair use, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?curid=5177527 The Grapes of Wrath: A Popular Culture Retrospect INTRODUCTION The story of rural folk migrating in times of poverty and social injustice seeped well into my childhood history, through three popular cultural forms of entertainment:- several television series in the 1960s, a series of comedy films from the late 1940s and 1950s, and a novel published in 1939 with a classic Hollywood movie the following year. There was in my own family history points of connection to the longer story, which I would only find out many years later. The story told here will move backwards in time, and the historical settings are different; that is the particular point I am making. Different histories are linked by a common theme, and in this case, we are considering the folkish expression on social justice. Retrospectively, we can also see how popular entertainment works to thin-out the social justice message. What starts as a serious educative process of informing the public on important social justice issues, in the end, becomes a mocking and light reflection on life- changing questions. By going backwards, we dig below the surface for the gold, rather than being satisfied in panning for the golden flakes.

  • Sitcoms and Suburbia: the Role of Network Television in the De-Urbanization of the U.S., 1949-1991
    SITCOMS AND SUBURBIA: THE ROLE OF NETWORK TELEVISION IN THE DE-URBANIZATION OF THE U.S., 1949-1991 By MICHAEL RAY FITZGERALD A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN MASS COMMUNICATIONS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2007 1 © 2007 Michael Ray Fitzgerald 2 To my wife, Susan, whose support and encouragement made this work possible. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my adviser and chair, Bernell Tripp, for walking me through the minefield, so to speak. I am so grateful that she introduced me to historical methods, because I was beginning to become dissatisfied with the limitations of quantitative research. What is more, she was fun to work with, and her offhand knowledge of television is astounding. I am especially grateful to my other committee members, Johanna Cleary and Julian Williams, for being more concerned with helping me improve my work than simply making me follow the rules. Dr. Cleary encouraged me to clarify my theoretical basis (even though historical studies are generally non theory-driven), and the result may be the most important section of my study. I also wish to thank Lynda Lee Kaid, who taught me the basics of content analysis and made the very valuable suggestion that a time shift be imposed on my data, which turned out to be the equivalent of shining a light on my findings. I would most of all like to thank my wife, Susan Allen, for lending moral and material support while I concentrated on graduate school and my mother, for her television expertise and for teaching me to be skeptical.

  • Ancestors of Frank Randolph CADY 12 June 2012 First Generation
    Ancestors of Frank Randolph CADY 12 June 2012 First Generation 1. Frank Randolph CADY1 was born on 8 Sep 1915 in Susanville, Lassen, California.1 He died at home on 8 Jun 2012 at the age of 96 in Wilsonville, Clackamas, Oregon.2 His obituary was published on 11 Jun 2012 in the New York Times in New York City, New York, New York. Frank Cady, a character actor best known for playing the down-home shopkeeper, Sam Drucker, on the popular 1960s sitcoms “Petticoat Junction” and “Green Acres,” died on Friday at his home in Wilsonville, Ore. He was 96. Catherine Turk, his daughter, confirmed his death. Mr. Cady played Sam Drucker for nearly a decade on the two shows, both set in the fictional town of Hooterville. Mr. Drucker was a bit of a straight man to the colorfully zany folk who populated the series, both on CBS. His general store was the closest thing Hooterville had to a social club, and unlike the shops in neighboring Pixley, Drucker’s extended credit. Mr. Cady’s Sam Drucker also appeared occasionally on a third homespun comedy, “The Beverly Hillbillies.” All three shows were produced by Paul Henning. Critics found the shows simple-minded, but in 1990 Mr. Cady defended “Green Acres,” about a city couple who move to the country. “The only thing I resent is people calling it a corny show,” he told CBS News. “It’s highly sophisticated, and it’s timeless, as I think all the reruns are establishing.” Mr. Cady had an extensive career outside of Drucker’s store.

  • Rural Representations in Fashion and Television: Co-Optation and Cancellation
    FSPC 1 (1) pp. 97–117 Intellect Limited 2014 Fashion, Style & Popular Culture Volume 1 Number 1 © 2014 Intellect Ltd Article. English language. doi: 10.1386/fspc.1.1.97_1 Susan B. Kaiser AND SARA TATYANA BERNSTEIN University of California, Davis Rural representations in fashion and television: Co-optation and cancellation Abstract Keywords In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Colombia Broadcasting System (CBS), a major rural US television network, cancelled all of its popular rural programming (e.g. The television Beverly Hillbillies [Paul Henning, CBS, 1962–71], Green Acres [Jay Sommers, sitcom CBS, 1965–71]). Known as the ‘rural purge’, the cancellations made way for more fashion urban-themed shows and strove to cater to higher ‘quality’ (presumably urban) Vogue viewers. At the same time, US Vogue Magazine featured the peasant look: a space decidedly rural style, but one co-opted from ‘other’ places and times. In this article, we analyse contradictory and ambivalent representations of ‘rurality’, which we describe as the construction and appropriation of non-urban life as a kind of cultural authenticity that is alternately disparaged and celebrated. Using Fred Davis’s (1992) concept of identity ambivalences and Henri Lefebvre’s (1991 [1974]) theories on the production of space, we explore cultural discourse in the late 1960s and early 1970s to interpret the complex rural-urban dynamics in fashion and television. Introduction ‘Fashion: Don’t be confused; this is the look […] Your dress can be a printed peasanty dirndl.’ (Anon 1970a: 48, 55) 97 FSPC_1.1_Kaiser_Bernstein_97-117.indd 97 9/12/13 6:02:32 PM Susan B.
