Dead bugs :)

Today was a bit of a strange day, we started of with the Bug Ranch, 5 horrible little Nazi Wagons (VW Beetles) Buried nose first in the ground, like the Caddys, best thing for 'em says I. All rusting and falling apart, and also being sprayed, one was even a pick-up! The target for today was to make Oklahoma City, we stopped next at the Devil's Rope and Route 66 museum. Who'd have known there was so much to know about barbed wire? Well, apparently there was, I'll be honest, I wasn't all that interested, but I had a look around anyways, it was like 4/5 times the size of the route 66 section! It was kinda cool in an odd way, and free, so it wasn't so bad. Then we carried on, trying to follow the route across Oklahoma state, which was a total mission, the road wasn't signed in most places, and our maps didn't really help when you weren't on it, the was alot of annoyance and frustration, aqnd some rather large detours, but eventually we got there, I drove the whole day as it wasn't a massive distance, but it did leave me pretty much dead for the night, so we went to Pizza Hut to grab a take-out, met the worlds most bored sounding worker, considering he did actually seem to really enjoy his job and be very enthusiastic (in a bored sounding way) about all of the offers and what they did and didn't have. (Seriously, this place still had the 80's branding on the outside.) But in the end we got very good pizza, part of which is about to make for todays lunch. Mhmmmmmmm good badness. Lunch was indeed good, and we did make it to Oklahoma City at a reasonable time, we drove round a bit looking for our motel, and for food, and had a bit of bbq cookin' hehe. I managed to have a total day off of the driving, which was nice.
