In addition to Mystic River Falls being new for the 2020 season the Rivertown Smokehouse is new. We decided to give it a try for lunch.

For my meal I went with their brisket basket with roasted Brussels sprouts and baked beans for a side. The entire bottom of the basket was filled with brisket that literally melted in your mouth. On top of that the beans had a great kick to them and if you are going to get me to eat a vegetable roasted Brussels sprouts is the way to go for me. In all reality there is nowhere you can go in Silver Dollar City and not find something amazing to eat. The Rivertown Smokehouse might give my favorite Lumbercamp Skillet a run for its money this was that good.

Of course we spent part of our trip getting back in time with the wickedly twisted Time Traveler.

Like the food at the park, the shopping at the park, the experiences at the park and the rides at the park nothing is ever a letdown at Silver Dollar City. To us the area feels like home, to me the park feels like home and each time we have to hop into the Toyota and head back to Illinois it gets harder and harder. Carrie and I really look forward to moving down here one of these days.

To round this trip report here is a photo of me and a couple of cocks. As "Top Gear" is a favorite show of ours. Presenter James May tends to use the phrase "Oh Cock" when he messes things up on the show. Heading for the exit after a really fun day with my wife and son I saw these roosters and as we all speak fluent movie and pop culture quotes I copied James May.

As a result Carrie directed me to pose for this photo.

So on that great disappointment this is the end of this trip report. I am looking back to heading back in November for the American Coaster Enthusiasts Coaster Christmas. Sadly though Bond will not be along as he ships out to basic training three days prior.
