Day 10 - Elk City Oklahoma to Oklahoma City

We spent the night in Elk City at a Sleep Inn.  It was a great hotel.  It had room darkening screens and we both slept past 9:00.  Or we were really tired.  There are Route 66 Museums in almost every town.  In Clinton, OK is the National Route 66 Museum.




The Canadian near Bridgeport, OK is the site of 3/4 mile bridge with 38 arches, which is called "a pony bridge."  It was built in 1933 and is still in use.

 Thank goodness, it is still in good condition!
 We were surprised to see that Yukon, OK is the home of Garth Brooks.  We looked for him, but did not find him. 


Route 66 has many surfaces from dirt to 4 lane highways.

Then the rains came with hail!!!

Another fun day!

We left our motor home at Grand Lake and spent a few days at Pat and Mike's home in Broken Arrow.  Astrid caught a ride with Michelle's in-laws, Mark and Cheryl, who also have an RV.  They were visiting Scott and Michelle and was passing our way on their way to Branson for a Rally.  Pat and Mike's granddaughter, Madison, is Astrid's age and they had a lot of fun.  They put miles on a little scooter. And had a sleep over.

We made a side trip to Mt. Airy, North Carolina.  This is where Andy Griffith was born and the Andy Griffith Show was fashioned after this town.  We toured the Andy Griffith Museum.  It was a trip down memory lane.  It was amazing how much we remembered form those shows. It was a fun stop and recommend for you to stop by if you are in the area! We went up one side and down the other side of Main Street and ate at Barney's. Floyds Barber Shop was closed....
