Thursday Wrap

It was neat to see more wind power.

These were the same kind of units that appeared on Dirty Jobs.

They are half way to Oklahoma City on US 40.




If you don't know this logo, Good. More for me.

It has to be Oklahoma's best kept ... Shhhh!





This looking back at Ponca City, across the Arkansas River.

Float downstream, and you end up in Tulsa.

The photo is taken from inside the Osage Nation.




I felt a little dark after getting to the homestead, to discover twisted hasps and missing property.

I will be busy for the next few days securing what remains of my belongings.



I will update accordingly.

"T" Is for . . .

Train.

Not the San Diego post-modern rock band of Drops of Jupiter fame.

The real thing.

There are two east-bound trains moving here.

The container says it all.

I am calling this the breakfast phase of the Vacation. I was fairly beat when I finally sat down to post last night. I had to do the Daily first, of course. Before I could write, I needed food and a little inspiration. Some people can be cruel, and I've got something for the verbal history. Speaking of Breakfast, I was at the I-Hop, and succumbed to a 2x2x2, scrambled with bacon. Why the waitress came back to ask if I had ordered over-easy or scrambled, I do not know.

This morning is coffee, OJ, pre-sweetened corn flakes, and probably more coffee. Then it's shower and road time. With all of this breakfast, including the Special-K bars for those road snacks, it really is the breakfast phase of this trip.

If all goes well, I'll be in Pawhuska for dinner, and that means one thing. A really messy post when I get to my next Internet connection.
