Auntie Helen's

 

May 7 - We left the St Robert Missouri RV park in the afternoon and drove to Tulsa, arriving around 7:30pm.

May 8-11 - Stayed in Tulsa at Johnny and Danielle's, visiting Helen almost daily, seeing most of the family as they came over at different times.

May 11 - Visited Helen one last time and left from her house in the afternoon. We drove through Oklahoma and stayed at a Cracker Barrel in Amarillo Texas. The scenery crossing western Oklahoma was very pretty with the red soil and cattle ranches, but there were A LOT of cattle ranches, lol. The Oklahoma Route 66 Museum was closed but we did look at their outdoor items and took pictures.

It was great to get to Oklahoma and to Johnny (Jonathan's cousin) and Danielle's house. Johnny wanted us to stay in his guest room, but Jonathan wanted to stay in the camper so as to not be a bother. I convinced him otherwise, there was a real bed, shower, and toilet. Jonathan wanted to see his aunt as soon as possible although it was getting late, so the four of us went and surprised her, it was beautiful. Jonathan's cousin Joy and her family were there, it was wonderful meeting Jonathan's family.

Family can message us to see the video, we aren't posting it here.

 

We stayed a few days and by the time we left I had met most of the family, which was great.

Everyone was nice and welcoming.

Johnny took us to a wonderful Mexican restaurant for lunch one day, and another a great place for breakfast.

 

Johnny also smoked some ribs, how awesome that was! 

His dogs are precious. Mika and Freya are so beautiful, Mika is the calmer of the two and just loved being pet. Freya was also a wonderful girl, but a little more high-spirited. Cozy got along well with Mika, I was surprised. We all didn't have her around Freya as much because she so very playful and Cozy is small and playful. But they did meet and did well. 

Cozy can be slow to warm up to new people, but Johnny said he would make her like him and she did.
