Foss Lake SP Ok.

We woke up this morning with our phones yelling at us to seek shelter immediately. This is Oklahoma so that's really not something you want to hear. We looked out the window and there was a wall of black headed in our direction. I was able to put away the Little satellite dish just before it started blowing and raining. There were 45 minutes of excitement and the storm delayed our departure for about 30 minutes but it passed, kinda like a gall stone. After we got on I-40 there was a Semi that had blown over and was reaking havoc on the East bound side. Foss lake is near the town of Foss. Weird. Anyway it backs up behind an earthen dam that in 1962 was the longest in the country. 3 miles. I am including a couple of pictures of the dam for some reason. The picture taken across the lake shows only maybe a mile of it. We drove across it just so that we could say we did. The highest temp we saw today was 104°. It has been real windy so I think this is what it feels like to be in a convection oven. We are here all day tomorrow, not sure what we'll do. They do have a 9 hole disc golf course.

  1. Guess you will have to play disc golf or take a hike on the bridge.
