We had a nice stay at Alabaster Caverns. The entire time here, there were no others camping at this park. There were, however, multiple people coming here for the cavern tours. We will leave this morning to our next campground in the Oklahoma Panhandle. After breakfast, we load the car and camper; we are now ready to leave. But first, we drive down into the canyon to see the tent-only sites.
Back on top, Nancy drives to the lookout parking area, surprising me with the view stretching the length of the canyon. She was told that it is believed that the canyon was created after a cavern collapsed millions of years ago.
Now the camper is hitched to the car, and we are on the road. We stop at a small city, Buffalo, OK, to fill the car with gas and ourselves with Subway grinders. I topped off the sandwich with a pint of Hagen-Daz.
“On the road again to a place we have never been”. The Panhandle is much like Texas, or so my memory has convinced me.
We arrive at the campground around 3:30 p.m. and set up camp.
We then ride into the City of Beaver for ice, groceries, and something at the hardware store to splint a cross strut on the screen tent. We also find out that there is a nice steak and burger restaurant that has killer margaritas. I think tomorrow evening we will see for ourselves!
