Oooooklahoma ....

OOOOk-lahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain,
And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet, When the wind comes right behind the rain.

Made it to Clinton, OK today. OK lived up to its billing, pretty much had 3* left rudder all afternoon. Getting off the infernal-state tomorrow at Amarillo (by morning ?) and taking the cross country tour to Las Cruces. Hoping to make Tucson by Tuesday evening, maybe Wednesday.

Hope everyone traveling is doing good.

Jake

Its not the marbles so much as the bruising and swelling of the upper lip. I just want to be on record as stating that it was dental work, not me.

Thanks for the memories, Jeff and Marcia!

No it's not tires. It's the shackle. It is broke in half and the other side is cracked.

That being related to the suspension? My quick research shows those parts are at least reasonably priced (~$95?), but I'll be danged if I would know where/how to fix them. Good luck Dwayne! I'm sure you're capable!

Northern New Mexico -- Red River perhaps. They have skiing there so I bet they have snow. And quaint describes it to a T.

Mescalero, NM? but really, you probably don't want to let her ski...or tube for that matter unless her ob says it is ok...balance issues begin in 2nd trimester as her center of gravity begins to shift...she will tire more easily and be out of breath a bit easier....

Really we just wanna see snow and toss snowballs at each other's face. I'm too chicken to ski. That's for sure
