Durant, Oklahoma & Why

I work for John Deere Landscapes as a delivery driver. On June 5th, 2009 I came up with an idea that since I do a lot of driving through Oklahoma I would create a blog my travels. Unfortunately I am going to school in August so it will only be about three months of material. However, I intend to continue it even though I won't be driving full time.

Today my delivery was all the way to Durant, Oklahoma. I didn't think of this blog until I was already heading back but I did it anyway. I was in a hurry or I'd get a photo of the truck I took - Chevrolet 2500 Silverado.

All the pictures are in reverse order. So I will back up down the road. Ladd Rd - A good friend's first name is Ladd. Don't tell him I told you. See Captain Random.

It looks like it warps pictures when you drive by quickly and shoot. I thought this dumper looked cool twisted like this.


A flag man between Madill and I35.


Road construction between Madill and I35.




I think this picture is a little warped but here in Madill they were celebrating the Sandbass Festival.

Madill. Lots of traffic bored.



Welcome to Madill. I'll be getting welcome signs on this blog.




A bridge a few miles from Madill. Lots of notes to people here.



Nice car. (My original drive by website was going to be devoted to these so I won't leave them out.)


A whole bunch of pictures of Lake Texoma.


















Road construction between Kingston and Lake Texoma.





Another main topic of this blog: Water towers.

You bought a CAMERA?????? Hmmm... We need to talk. I just found this blog today, do I talk so much that you never get to say anything? You never said a word about it! Well yesterday at the Devols I said something to Valerie about the scrap blog being random and you said that was your job. I told you if you wanted to do it you needed to start your own blog. You said that you did. I thought you were speaking in reference to the blogs you already had. Guess I was wrong. No one tells me anything.
