Oklahoma Where the Wind Comes Sweepin' Down the Plains
We left Nashville around 7 a.m and headed slightly south west to stay with our good friend Suzanne for a few days in Oklahoma. We made it to Tulsa Tuesday night just in time for a nice home cooked meal made by Mrs. Bartley. Suzanne's two older sisters, Karen and Tricia came over that night too. We also got to have the pleasure of meeting Tricia's little girl, Emma, who is 2 1/2. She's quite the entertainer.
I always love to see people I love in the context of their family and it was a treat to see all the Bartleys in action! Great family.
We got to be there for Suzanne and John's engagement party Wednesday night and Thursday Mr. Chapuis took us out on his boat to one of the lakes in Oklahoma. John showed us his moves on the wakeboard while we tubed and water skied. Those Oklahomans have to find fun somehow so I guess the lakes will have to do. Watch out for the 600 lb catfish lurking below.
A special thanks to Pat for her meals, hospitality and especially her famous road trip goodie bag full of all you could ever dream of! Thanks Pat!!
Roadtrip Tip: If you ever travel through Oklahoma make sure to have a pot of gold- the tolls will empty you. Total Toll Count- 13.
