No doubt in my mind that as this world was being put together, He parked the purtiest parts in SE Okla. Within minutes, there are lakes, rivers, creeks and streams to enjoy. Mt’s and Hills to look down and enjoy the beauty. Small towns and some of the nicest people that you’ll ever gonna come across. I finally made time to get out and take a slow drive thru the woods down South of Reichert last weekend. It was much needed. Nearly an hour without the sound of traffic or other human beans. Just wind thru the pines, ripplin’ water and my squirrel dawg barkin’ on tree. It was good for me. So get out, enjoy the colors of the woods- the 1,000 shades of green, the redbuds and dawgwoods, the blue hues of surrounding mts and red dirt roads. And all in that window that’s just before the release of the group of critters that God uses to keep it all balanced. Ya know, Chiggers, ticks and ‘skeeters. Take a picnic basket and a gallon of sweet tea, just leave it like ya found it.
