Camping in Oklahoma

Camp Site down by the Illinois River near Tahlequah, Oklahoma

Cat and I are going to do some camping down in southern Oklahoma in the Arbuckle Mountains. One of the many blessings of my marriage is that I have found a woman who enjoys tent camping as much as I do. In fact, our honeymoon was a 4 state camping trip.

Too many Oklahomans go to Colorado or some such place for the summer to do their camping. Colorado is a great state. I enjoyed living there, but I love camping in my native state. Besides, Coloradoans don't like us "Okies" all that much anyway, so I figure I might as well stay where people are glad you came. I'll try to bring back some nature writing.

Hope you are enjoying yourself this summer wherever you may be. Be sure to take some time to appreciate the beauty that is right in front of your eyes.
