Back on the Road Again

We are back on the Road again thanks to Cecil & Sons Discount Tires. Not only did they get a Michelin Pilot PS2 tire and get it on my car in a timely manner, they called Michelin, explained the problem, new tire with only 1200 miles on it and a nasty nail ripping it up. He thought they might give me a goodwill discount......they did......100%. They got my $225 tire for free!!!! If you ever need help in Tulsa they are great. Here is their website http://www.cecilandsons.com/ . Here is a picture of Ken and Rick. They were great!

After all of the hard work and problems we decided that Baby needed a car wash. She was dusty and hot! Here is me hand washing her with tender loving care.











We did not leave Tulsa until 2pm, we had hoped to find a hotel in Oklahoma City, go to somewhere to do our laundry. We found a Fairfield Inn & Suites in Edmondson. It is new, they have not been open long, imagine our surprise to find our they are equipped with a washer and dryer. Life is good, tomorrow we will have clean clothes again!! YEA!


We found a brand new GIANT today. It is a giant Soda Bottle, not listed in our Route 66 guide book. It is at this place called POPS. They have hundreds of different kinds of sodas. Flavors and brands never heard of before.

Of course, just as we were getting to the end of our Route for the day we found this beautiful lake to take a few moments to pause and reflect on how blessed we have been on this trip and to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Oklahoma.











Getting our Kicks on Route 66,
