Queen Wilhemia State Park in Oklahoma
On our last day we drove to the State Park. It is on the top of one of the mountain
ranges in southeastern Oklahoma. The view is spectacula.

This is Joyce and Grayson. We almost got blown off the side of the mountain.

Here are the three sisters - Jan, Jane and Joyce. We were
on our way to another state park. We stopped to drink some water out of a fresh
stream fountain. The park we went to had Runtstones there. Look up on the internet to find what that is about. Very interesting.

This is the cabin that we stayed at. It was in an RV Park. We slept like babies.

George is a rancher, farmer, carpenter, etc.. We are at their "Ranch". They have 26 heads of longhorn cattle. George is in his hog heaven when he is with his cows.

George admires his herd. He took us on a guided tour of his ranch. He is refurbishing a house at the ranch for them. We hope he gets it completed before we all go to our great reward.

This is our host. He is preparing his famous Hungarian goulash over the fire outside.

I have great faith that the meal will be superb and it was.
Jan is eagerly awaiting for the stew to cook. It goes well with red or white wine. We spent 3 days with George and Jane. They were wonderful hosts. It is 925 miles from our house to theirs. We left on Thursday morning and got home at 330PM on Friday. Marty was so glad to see us. This is the first time Jan and I spent so much time with each other in our 32 years of marriage. It was a great blesssing to us.
