April 22

Ruth took us out this morning and we are now east of Hugo. In just a short while, we were crossing the Kiamachi River just below the Lake Hugo dam. We saw several people fishing below the dam. Crappie fishing is reportedly good here.

 

We soon walked through the town of Sawyer and stopped at the public tornado shelter. Sawyer is so small, every citizen of Sawyer could probably fit into that shelter.

 

On we walked through about a 3 mile section of highway that was under construction. We walked single file here as there was very little shoulder. But, with the nimbleness and alertness of two senior citizens, we made it through.

 

We reached the town of Ft. Towson and Carol and Ruth were waiting for us on the other side of town.

We found an Oklahoma license plate and a nickel. Stay tuned ...
