After having an elegant Room Service breakfast we left the outstanding Capital Hotel in Little Rock, and said good bye to Billy Glasscock, more about that later. Off we went on 40 West heading for Oklahoma City. We were 3 for 3 on debacles so we wondered what was in store for us today. Only a five hour jaunt which we could do on our heads at this point. The rolling hills of West Arkansas were very beautiful, we both wished it was the fall so the trees would appear a colorful quilt, but very nice anyway. Eastern Oklahoma while pleasant, didn't have much but black moo cows, which were OK, but whatever. We did notice that Oklahoma had very much more suicidal, kamikaze insects slamming into our windshield. Long trails of goo that took a lot of elbow grease to get off at the rest stops. We arrived in Oklahoma City about 45 min late and check into the Springhill Suites. The second Springhill on our trip had it over the first one only because the free breakfast was tastier.
That evening we decided that since we were in Oklahoma we should eat what they eat. STEAK!!!! We knew through Tripadvisor that the Cattleman's Cafe was a late fifties venue, which sure looked fifties. Diner like! But the steaks were great. Also, on the menu was a locally brewed Regional Ale. The Mayor has taken up testing regional ale on this trip. It was called The Double Deuce and was served in a 22oz bottle. Ha!!!! But it was as good as the steak. When we got back to the hotel we realized that we had a perfect day with no mishaps. Yeah Baby!!!! Oh Yeah, Catch the Cowboy in the Picture
the mayor must of been hammered!!
