Tulsa Oklahoma

I have a plan in the works for a 4 day trip to Tulsa. My friend has a son there and she hasn't seen him or family for 2 years now so she wants to go. I guess next month the second weekend we're off and running. What would really be great is if gas would come down to where it's almost affordable again. It's pushing $3.20 here now I have a winstar van with a 26 gallon tank on it. It gets 24 MPH and that's not to bad so maybe it'll work out. I sure hope so her son is in flight school getting his comercial license. His wife is a terrific woman that puts up with a lot and 2 daughters still at home. Just a great little family that I enjoy visiting.

Ready to go

My good friend just asked me if I would drive her down to Tulsa to see her son and his family.Being a retired truckdriver I don't pass up any chances to drive 1200 miles round at someone elses expense. All gas and meals for the trip will be paid and a little gambling money on the side that could make me rich. It'll only be for 4 days but at least I'll get to see some over the road miles that I miss so much. If this works out good we may go to her daughters in Nashville the following month.
