Checotah, OK to Palo Duro Canyon State Park, TX

Let me start by saying we spent 3 nights in Palo Duro Canyon.
No cell phone service and no internet - so we have not been able to keep the blog updated until today (Tuesday).

We woke up on Christmas Day in the Checotah, Oklahoma KOA Kampground.  We were the only RV'ers that showed up for the night.  The owners of the campground cooked us breakfast as a Christmas "gift".  Very nice people.  We guessed they were happy to just have somebody there for company.

Anyway, we drove on from there to Palo Duro, about 360 miles.  We were almost the only ones there also.  It got a low as 17 degrees by morning but the next morning it was only 27, sunny, and got to around 62.  We caught up on a few things needed to be done after getting out on the road again - including a little rest after driving so much for three days straight and some minor repairs.  My back was killing me after the long days of driving and Ellen was just "wore out" after everything.  She slept most of Sunday and I did everything I could do to not "sit".  Since we did not see any of the Canyon on Sunday, we decided to stay another (3rd) day. 

We have some pictures to post of the Canyon and will do so as soon as we can.
