Its taken us 2-1/2 weeks to get here but we are settled in and working from Lake Murray in Ardmore, OK. for the next few weeks. Why this location? Easy, its a little over an hour from Connor & Delaney, our youngest son and his wife. Our hope is that we will have an opportunity to spend some quality time with them while we are in this area.
This is also our "make sure we like it" point in the adventure. This placeholder was the safety net for me more than my husband. Working from the dining space of our camper is where I will be for the next several weeks. After the first two weeks of adapting to the new space, the question is, "Can I do this for several more weeks?". The jury is still out. Its not ideal but, as with all things, there are trade-offs. So, I'll see how this week goes and assess again over the weekend. Apparently Mousse doesn't seem to have a problem with the digs at all.

Now on to our short-term address, Lake Murray State Park, located in south central Oklahoma, is its largest state park. The lake itself is spring-fed. Its a relatively small lake with only 6,000 surface acres. While we did not bring our kayaks on the trip (BIG HASSLE), we do intend to take in a little kayaking and boating on the weekends.
Our camp site is part of a private resort for RV'ers. We are across from a fishing pond. The view out that direction is meadows, farmland and the pond. The other side, well, its a view of other camper sites.

I have to say, the campers we've encountered on our trip have been pretty cool. We've not run into any rudeness, people clean up after themselves and their pets, and most give you a wave when they pass by (sort of a Midwest thing). Can you ask for better hospitality? Now, if we can just get the neighbors to plays Dominos. :)
