We have nothing to do with the new motorhome until next Tuesday while the dealer gets it ready, so we decided to head 250 kms north to visit with our friends Ed and Lessie in Norman Oklahoma. Norman is just outside Oklahoma City. Yes we will have to drive back the 350 kms on Tuesday to pick up "Percy" the Coachman Pursuit but it will give us some time with our friends. Sue named the new MH "Percy" and I think its an awesome name!!! We haven't seen Ed and Lessie for a year or so, so it will be nice to spend some time with them. So off we went. Not much to see on the trip other than a couple Casino's along the way.
This was our trip today.
We arrived shortly after lunch time and got all set up in our spot. The county fairgrounds has an actual RV park with full service for $25 a night. We are just a few sites down from Ed and Lessie.
Ed and Lessie informed us that there is a carnival in town so we decided to go downtown and check it out. On the way I found my business. I didn't know I had one named after me!!!
While they were riding the rides, the rest of us walked down the street to take in the music festival and all the vendors along the way. The music had not really started yet and any we did hear was raunchy heavy metal style. We did get our exercise though.
There was a neat statue of James Garner because this is where he used to live. Hey wait a minute, we also have a friend named Jim Garner. Jim and Marilyn visit us lots at the lake all summer. Can't wait to see them.
We managed to catch a sunset as we wandered along.
A guy was showing off his snake to the crowd. It was a little bit cool so the snake was quite slow.
Us old folks stopped to have a drink before we hooked back up with the kids and headed for home.
We had some snacks before bed. Dani made a pot of Kraft dinner. Good Nite!!!
I have a sister in law named Terri Garner.
