Day 33 – Tuesday 11th June 2013 – Haskell, Oklahoma – Tulsa – Haskell 66 Miles.

Up at 6.30 am and ready to hit the road. Only one problem, were here for another two days. Im not one for staying in the same place for too long if not a lot to do.

My wife was happy to sit and talk but I get bored. I wrote myself a list of things I needed and headed off to Tulsa for the morning.
My wife had earlier confiscated my second SLR camera as her point and shoot had battery problems.
The only lens spare was my favourite 31mm prime. It was also my main lens for panoramics.

It didn’t take long find a camera shop and wasn’t long before I walked out with a nice 18 -250mm telephoto lens. Also half the price I would have paid in Australia.

Now my wife was happy with a lens more suitable and me with my favourite lens back in my camera bag. It looks like I have lost the camera for good. There was never any talk of it returning. Happy Wife – Happy Life I suppose.

Second Item on the list was a Ipod. We wanted to listen to music on the road. The Apple Ipod store wanted to sell me one for a few hundred dollars. Not the amount I wanted to part with.

I headed to Walmart and ended up buying a similar thing with a mini SD card for $45. Loaded all our music on and plugged it into the CD player. Its all ready now for next trip.

It was mid afternoon by the time I got back to Haskell. I spotted a sign to the local lake and diverted for a quick look.




A few photos and it was back to base for the rest of the day. Starting to think ablout the rest of the trip, so my batteries must be nearly recharged.
