Guymon (OK) to Natural Falls State Park (OK)

Monday November 13th

Late start as we did internet and had breakfast in hotel. Left Guymon continued east on 412.  Ended up at Lake McMurty Park/recreation area. Has east and west side areas. I researched at OK state park site and determined best sites were on West side so we went there. Hwy 412  east to I-35 south, jigged over to Hwy 77 then Bronco road (E0580 road) to the lake. We had site number 5. Nice view of lake, Utilities and free wi fi. Had campground all to ourselves. (site 4 at lake McMurtry west). There are trails but we did not walk any due to me being Gimpy from knee sprain.

Woke up and slow start. Left around 10:30 or so. About 200 miles to drive. Headed out from Lake McMurtry east to get to highway  177 south to highway 51 east. Stopped in Stillwater for fuel. 51 runs into 412 at Tulsa so there we transferred to 412 east. Then for lunch at Flo’s burgers in Catoosa. Continued on 412 East, past Flint to our stop at Natural Falls State Park Camp Ground.

Had site 21 which was nice as was on a bluff. PJS took her first walk wihtout crutches. Had picked up a brace at Walmart. We walked Dripping springs trail. Saw the natural falls, walked to bottom then along creek over bridge and back up…may have been too much. Iced leg and Ibuprofen for dessert after dinner of broccoli and soup. Alex had broccoli and left over pizza.
