Started west out of Chanute today. In Moline, saw this T-33 aircraft static display. No explanation for it, but it was the first jet aircraft I ever did an aileron roll in, so i took a picture. Went a little farther west and then turned south into Oklahoma. The wind was definitely blowing thru the plains this morning. Spent most of my time leaning into the wind so that I wouldn't go off the road. Stopped for gas and almost hit the doorjamb walking into the store because I was still leaning left. Weather lightened up nicely, so decided to go farther south than had planned so that I could ride the Talimena Scenic Drive that goes over the Ozarks from OK to Ar. Almost didn't go there but am glad I did. It was a great route, great scenery, and great road. That's a couple of things that I'm really enjoying about this trip. I never know what the best part of my day will be, and I never know what to expect along the side of the road.
