Thanks for the concern, Dealer!

If you look at a map, the big blow touched down at Kimberling City, MO and took an almost due east course, across the lake and then hit the strip, and then on to the Branson Landing where it basically spent itself. Everything north and south of that imaginary line was untouched. Still haven't been out to do a windshield tour of things, but go to the Springfield NewsLeader site and they have a collection of aerial shots which pretty much tell the story. Unfortunately there's no captions for each shot and only those of us who have lived here for some time can identify specifics.

I guess there's a silver lining in every story: most of the damage was done to structures built before Branson had a decent building code (thus, some extensive damage to older buildings). These old structures will be rebuilt and newer, stronger buildings will result.
