Osage Hills State Park

We stopped at the Rockin A Cafe in  Boise City, OK for a great breakfast.  This is a little local cafe that had lots of cars around it, a sure sign that it is a good place to eat.  We stopped for gas at Love's and they didn't have ice tea.  It was a bummer for me but Hardy got coffee so he was a happy camper.  (Mighty nice of me.)

We stopped for lunch in the might metropolis of Slapout, OK and did a bit of geocaching while at it.  Two muggels were there ahead of us but they were more interested in each other than us.  I am not sure they even noticed we were there!.

No Man's Land is as empty as ever with rolling hills and prairie with an occasional abandoned farm house.  We saw an interesting burned out motel and restaurant with a dog on the roof in Elmwood, OK.  We struck Fort Supply about 1:18.  It seemed to be out of supplies but has a nice grove of trees along the Highway 412.  We changed drivers in Woodward, OK and stopped at McDonalds for coffee and ice tea.  Hardy didn't want ice cream, go figure, and I even had the points all figured out for Weight Watchers.


Fuzzy tarantula in our camp




We were in camp by 8:00 and took a walk around the park.  We met a nice fuzzy tarantula and Kyle the Park Ranger who said we could pay when we leave in the morning.  He was a nice young guy who has been all over at different parks.
