Way Down Yonder in the Indian Nation

Looks like some of my pictures will show up at the bottom...


I made it to Tulsa. It was a very pretty day to travel but was getting a little windy here in Oklahoma. I didn't get away as early as I planned but still had plenty of time to make a couple stops. I'm trying to make a point of stopping every hour or so to walk around a little.

My first stop was at Ha Ha Tnka State Park. There were lots of peple enjoying the day but it was a little cool, The spring was running very fast and muddy from all of the rain.



I also made my obligatory stop at the "Glass House" -- the worlds largest McDonalds. I was craving a candy bar -- seems like the only thing I didn't pack. They don't have any. The highway runs under the building - through the arch.

Spring is coming. I hit Spring somewhere between Joplin and Tulsa. Saw some forsythia blooming and all of the Bradford Pears are blooming in Tulsa. Serviceberry trees are blooming in the woods and some trees are getting leaves.

Not very much traffic. I had the road to my self sometimes. Only saw one accident just east of Tulsa (I didn't cause it.) Tomorrow I head to Amarillo.

I like the pictures. They fit in the blog just fine, I think.
