Next stop was Checotah, Oklahoma, a lovely campground with huge sites and lots of trees! Once out of the desert southwest, the campgrounds started to have a lot more trees, which helped with the heat, but it was still too hot to do much of anything except walk around the campground a little and check out the camp store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The drive from my previous campground, the Elk City\/Clinton KOA, was about 3.5 hours long and very stressful, due to having to drive through Oklahoma City \u2014 I hated having to pull the trailer through big cities, with multi-lane freeways and heavy traffic. I would have liked to just get in the slow lane and stay there, but that was impossible as lanes kept dropping off or getting added, and I was always afraid of missing my exit. And poor Mister was getting more stressed out and agitated with every day’s drive. I was really starting to worry about him, not knowing how to settle him down, and with the trip only half over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

It was once again too hot to really do anything, but I did walk around the campground a bit and was amused by the dog park, with its fire hydrant for “City Dog” and wooden fence post for “Country Dog.” There was a little catch-and-release pond behind the dog park, if you were inclined to do a little fishing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
