Big thunderstorm rolled through today with only a sprinkle of rain but the cloud formation was like the sky was on fire.

Trying something here as I have never posted a picture from my phone.

The image above is kind of like a picture that is on one wall of our hotel room here in Wichita Falls.

Good day today! My wife's cousin and I left out early, met up with @OkieJoe72 in W'ford for a trading session (always good to see you!), then hightailed it for Sapulpa to meet with @zipty6 for the first time. Both good guys to deal with!

Stopped at Razoo's once back in OKC for lunch, then on to Village Tactical and Sooner State Pawn for a visit. Saw my first Calico 22 in a long time at SSP. Then on to cabinet warehouse to grab a pantry for the house project (don't ask how THAT is going 🙄). And headed back west.

Randomness along the way: almost saw a semi take out a SUV/camper trailer; saw cops had a vehicle blocked in at McD's drive thru window on south side of turnpike between Chandler and Stroud; almost ran over some cattle out in road 15 minutes after leaving; came out of Loves at Hinton exit to see a black Kia Soul parked by us shortly after the Amber Alert went out (tags didn't match); got passed by a random F250 on I-40 and guy stuck his head/arm out the pass window to stare at me and flip me off 🙄🤦‍♂️

I spent all day yesterday at one of the deer leases I do clearing work for, and only three members had been out to see what they needed done ahead of time. I ended up only getting 4 hours work and donating 5 hours of my time. I’m either going to have to go up on my machine time or starting charging for my time. :censored:

I’m piddling around my place today. I hope y’all have a good day! :thumb:

@DRC458 I need to go to TSC for feed this morning, and I remembered to check what time they open before getting there.🤣

@clintbailey It was good to meet up with you again. Sounds like you had an eventful road trip.
Better than boring, as long as it doesn't involve me! And the guy flipping me off for no reason, there's too much road rage crap going down to get involved in something that isn't a direct threat.

Made it to the Tulsa area today and picked up our work van. We've now left our Expedition with our son so he can drive in on occasion, usually when he comes out to the RV to check on things here.

Tomorrow, we head to Wichita Falls and do a DMI calibration (DMI = Distance Measuring Instrument) and do our first certification of the van. After that, we wait around down there until they get the database to us to start working. Nothing like getting paid for sitting around and waiting. We will get an oil change while waiting for the database.

Looking forward to the upcoming months.

Update on this post. While we made it to Wichita Falls and did the two above procedures, we finally got our database to work yesterday. So, we went out to start work, but one of the systems on the van started giving us errors and crashing with a "Critical Error" message. So, now we are in a hotel in the Tulsa area waiting for them to check everything out at the office tomorrow. With luck, we will be headed back to Wichita Falls sometime tomorrow.

All I can say is, "We'll see."
