Witchita Falls to Lawton, OK

Today we crossed the border from TX to OK. We had to have a police escort because we took a highway bridge to avoid adding an extra 30 miles to the route. Apparently TX doesn't mind us riding on the highway but OK has a serious problem with it, and rightly so. So sadly, we were not able to get a state line picture, but not to fear, one will be acquired upon leaving OK. The ride today was a super short 59 miles so we took a super long lunch break in Cookietown!!! A town with a population of 6...meaning we almost quintupled the population upon our arrival to lunch. Hannah, David and I leisurely crushed the rest of the miles into town and told stories along the way to pass the time. We had a good time mingling with a group of HS students staying in the same church as us as they work on helping with local home repairs this week. We have another, even shorter day tomorrow. excited, but it's supposed to top out around 100 degrees, meaning on blacktop it'll be around 110. Ick.
