More tales from the road

I’m back home now, have been for a couple of days, but I’ve been so busy that the blog got moved to the back burner.

I left Dallas on Monday morning and took a different route for part of my trip home so I could drive through some areas I’d not been in before and pick up a few more counties for my Extra Miler Club total. I added three more counties in Texas and three in the southwestern corner of Oklahoma, bringing my total of counties entered to 772. I got to see lots of ranch country in North Texas, and in Oklahoma I passed through the Chickasaw, Creek, Cherokee and Choctaw Indian Nations. I also crossed the famed Red River, which divides Oklahoma from Texas. The song “Red River” by Guy Clark from the Into the West soundtrack started playing in my head. Once I got back to I-40, I was back in areas I’d driven through before so all I had was a long drive across Arkansas and half of Tennessee to get home.

But arrive home I did on Tuesday, just in time for our 14th wedding anniversary. 14 years of marriage + 3.5 years of dating + we still like each other = Yay, us!
