December 1-4, 2024 Russellville, Arkansas to Wister, Oklahoma

 54, no wind and sunny.



Swim beach at the campground. Bald cypress trees along the lake.



Sweet gum along the lake. Invasive fresh water mussels. 



Sunset. We are now parked at Lake Wister State Park in Oklahoma, outside of Wister, Oklahoma. Nice spot on a peninsula on the lake. 



Beautiful oak tree. Buzzards, red tail hawk and Welcome to Oklahoma. 



Sunset on the lake from camp. Downtown Wister, Oklahoma.



Fall colors on the drive up Cavanal Hill. Cavanal Hill is the worlds highest hill. There is a steep 5 mile road to the top which is used for 5 miles runs, mountain bike races and the famous Cavanal Hill Killer 5 mile walk. 



Welcome to downtown Poteau, Oklahoma. There are two breweries in Poteau. The Rough Day is closed until Thursday so we went to  Shop Dog Brewing to taste their brews. 



Bonnie and Clyde gang robbed the bank in Poteau. John with a purple pirate cow at the  Purple Plume in Poteau. Their team is the pirates. 



Christmas light display in downtown Wister, Oklahoma. The sliver moon and Venus in the sunset over the lake. 



Red bellied woodpecker. I also saw blue birds and a cardinal, but didn't get photos of them. I am almost done with this basket. The center is a bowl that I fused that had holes in it-they were a mistake. The coils go through the holes. It is 12 x 4 inches. I have been working on it a month. It needs cleaning up and some beads but I cannot work on it now. Will finish it later. Time to start something new. 



The back of the basket. The coils don't bend very much so had to get creative to get the coils through the holes. Sunset tonight.
