Barb - After checking with the staff at Crater of Diamonds State Park (where conditions to dig diamonds were "raining and muddy", but "we're open", we turned ourselves northeast to the Tulsa/Claremore area. We visited the Will Rogers Museum in Claremore several years ago and decided it was worth another visit. There is an RV park on the Cherokee Casino/Will Rogers Downs track property outside of Claremore where we have decided to roost for the next two nights. Ed had the idea to contact a fishing guide who works at Truman Reservoir in central Missouri to see if he had an opening for us on our way north. We are working that out for the weekend. Eastern Oklahoma is supposed to have heavy rain the next 24 hours. We have rain gear, a safe place to park, and a casino nearby. The casino had good sandwiches at its cafe/bar and a really good guitarist for live entertainment. I didn't repay myself for trip expenses at the casino, but it was OK to do something different.
Ed - Drive, drive and drive some more. We took our time getting to the West Coast and now we are really headed home. We are starting to see the end of this trip and already talking about what can be done in the future. We are getting to roads we have traveled before and smells of Iowa are in the air.
