I See Dead People in Oklahoma

 We have spent two night near Oklahoma City on our northward journey. The reason was to complete another GeoArt. We had one in mind, but an email from some geocaching friends (Thanks Ruth & Chuck) recommended a different set of geocaches to solve and find. The GeoArt is called ISDP or I See Dead People.

We worked on finding the caches Thursday afternoon when we arrived in the area and completed it Friday at noon. Nice to have another one in our collection.

We had a half day to explore something else in the OK City area and chose the community of El Reno, a community along the Historic Route 66.

When in the south...have BBQ. This was the third BBQ place we tried and the very best. If in El Reno, we highly recommend it.

another Historic Route 66 completed

there are a total of 90 Adventure Labs on the 2000 miles

from Chicago to Santa Monica

then we stopped in Yukon for this Adventure Lab

in the Yukon Cemetery

This was one of the most fun geocaches we found on this trip; a fake fire hydrant near a business in a location where a fire hydrant would not ordinarily be placed. 

We leave Oklahoma Saturday morning for home. Like horses headed for the barn...that is how we are both feeling after 9 days on the road.

22 OK counties before this trip

8 more counties added to the OK map

we'll leave the rest for another visit or two or three
