OSA: Gathering place of well-armed ranchers, hunters, truckers, oilfield guys, businessmen and other nutjobs who have made this drive multiple times. I know you have.
I need routes/speed trap tips/things to see. I'm thinking about 412 through the panhandle on the way there, and I-70 on the way back. I-70 takes the least amount of time I know, and it's been years since I've driven it. I always take longer routes on the way and shorter routes on the way home, since I'm usually less eager to explore. I did 412 straight through to Northern New Mexico last year. I always liked passing through the panhandle - it's an interesting place. It's different state, really. I'll be accompanied by a chick that has only been west in a plane since she was a child. A city girl, if you will. I want to show her some real western OK desolation.
I was kinda thinking stopping by Kenton before it dies. We will likely stop a night somewhere (yes, I've driven 412, so I know I need to be mindful of hotels/motels as there's not a lot out there) on the way. Any routes better than 412 or I-70? Any cool things to see that won't slow us down much?
Regards,
Your Beloved RH
