Woke up around 8 am and went to breakfast at The Hole Thing, once again. Back to the room to load up the van and say goodbye to Red River. We stopped in Cimarron for one last look at the scenery before making the long trip back to Oklahoma.
We did manage to make one more scenic stop along the way. Just outside Amarillo, TX is the Cadillac Ranch.
We stopped many times along the way to stretch our legs, walk the dog, get a snack or sit down for a meal. Our kids are great travelers. We had very few problems with them. And Socrates is the best traveler of all. He spent a great deal of the day in his crate, and sometimes alone in the car while we took a break, and he didn't complain at all.
We finally made it home around 10:30 pm. Naturally, there is the stack of mail to go through. The flowers need watering. Tomorrow we'll need to unpack and do laundry. And I probably need to get back to work.
But tonight we'll sleep in our own beds. It's Oklahoma. It ain't pretty, but its home.
It's Del.icio.us!
Furl It!

Welcome back to Oklahoma! Ain't pretty? Gosh, when we go on vacation for a couple of weeks, I think Okie City is about the best looking site in the world as we pull into town! 8-)
Glad you had a nice vacation.
