Long day today - back into the driving groove

Woke up and was on the road around 9AM after a nice breakfast. Eureka Hot Springs was gorgeous but it was only afternoon and I felt like driving a bit further. Got to Muskogee (looked for but did not see any Okie song monument -- probably there though) and then on to Tulsa. Pulled over for dinner at the Twin Peaks Restaurant -- seemed vaguely western and I was in for a steak. Parking lot was full which was a good sign. Turns out that their business model is very similar to Hooters and the Twin Peaks in question were sported by all of the waitstaff. Their store motto is Eats - Drinks - Scenic Views Had a very nice flatiron steak cooked perfectly and spent the 60 minutes or so drooling. From the food dammit!!! What were you thinking??? Headed south through Tulsa with plans to get to Oklahoma City but when I saw that it was 130 miles, I went with Plan B and am now in the Sapulpa, OK Super 8 with a cold sixpack of Shiner Bock and a WiFi connection. Surf for 30 minutes or so and then off to bed and an early start tomorrow -- heading down to the Fort Worth area where the power hammer is located.
