[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 4326658, member: 44288"] That's funny. I was at a doctor's office yesterday and ran into our old county clerk from Kingfisher. We reminisced about the dirty county commissioners of the '70s and '80s who all had blacktop roads from town to their homes in the county. We both agreed they thought they had power beyond belief until they met the county attorney and district DA. They all believed that the perks they received were just par for the course as it has been for decades before they were elected into office. We moved back to the farm briefly in 2004 and the farm roads were just as bad as they were in the '50s and '60s. After a rain, you jumped into a deep rut and floored it to get from one intersection to another. If you had to turn, you cranked the wheels at least 100 feet from your driveway to break the rut's walls, backed up, and tried again. Eventually, you would be able to turn into your drive. [/QUOTE]
