We had our coffee and and spent a little while talking about the plan for the day and then we got our showers and dressed. We were ready to head out about 9:30 and wasted no time getting on the road. We took George Bush to highway 75 north and headed toward Durant and the Choctaw casino. The trip took about an hour and a half with no problems. The first thing we did was to check out the new RV park that they are building there. It is behind the casino. I am not sure how many sights they will have but from the looks of it there will be enough.
Yes we did visit the casino and did well to stay even on our money. Being that this is my birthday month I got $10.00 from the casino to play on and they knocked $4.00 off my lunch at the buffet. Over all we had a great time and we did not spend any money having it.
We left from there and went to Lake Texoma State Park. We took a look at the sights there and made some notes on good ones with views of the lake.
There were many camp sites here closed due to the flood that happened here two years ago. They still have not rebounded from the high water. The only sites available were the ones on the high ground.
It was about 3:30 when we finished looking around Texhoma and we did not have a lot of day light left. We had about an 45 minute drive to Lake Murray State Park so we headed down highway 32 so we could come in the south entrance to the park. We still had plenty of light left when we arrived and that was good because they have so many places to look at.
There was several places that had great views of the lake and very private from other camp sites. They have fire rings and the sites back right down to the lake. This would be a good place for me to use my inflatable boat and it is not on the main body of the lake but in a protective cove. Oh life is good.
Sherri and I stopped by the main office so we could pick up some information to study later. Then it was off to the Windstar Casino down interstate 35 south about 30 minutes away. Sherri had to have one more gambling fix before we left Oklahoma. We left the Windstar about even on money so all is well. Hunger had set in by this time so we drove to Lake Lewisville and stopped at On the Border for some enchiladas. On the way I talked with Dortha and Mark to see how they had faired at the casino...seems as though Jim and Ellie did all the good. Mark and Dortha made enough to pay for lunch and some gas money home...LOL.
We plan on meeting up with them Saturday and some good food is in the plans I am sure.
Better go now and see if anyone is still on chat see you Somewhere in Time
