Lake Thunderbird State Park, Norman, OK

We had a visitor last night


did not know what to feed it..  plus we don't have a lot of food on hand.  Eric gave it a bowl of milk.  It drank most of it. this morning the bowl still had some frozen milk in it..  it looked to be well taken care of and kind of chunky so assuming it is back home.

After a beautiful sunrise


we left the Ponca City area and headed about 150 miles to Lake Thunderbird State Park in Norman OK.  We are about 30 minutes from Oklahoma City.   the park is really nice as well as the camp sites.  concrete pads for the RV, picnic table and grill. 

we took a 90 minute walk around the park.  A cactus with a flower...


the flower is pale pink and not easy to see with all of the leaves.  I moved a couple of the leaves and ended up getting cactus stickers in my finger!

Eric found some red clay to play in..



a walk along the beach had signs of Coyote?


the tracks were in too straight of a line to be a dog.  not sure what other animals are here in OK.

we are not far from Tinker AFB and every now and then we hear this thunder...  must be a plane taking off.. skies are clear..   maybe we can get a tour??

we will be here until Friday.  so we have time to settle in..  I am getting 4G on the internet connection. have not had that since last year in Santa Ana..  much faster to add pictures..

  1. No food yet, very disappointed. Looks like a really nice place, am a little envious of the milder weather. It is cold here..... be safe!
