END OF WEEK #1 OF ADVENTURELAND

GREETINGS: We have settled in, here at Altoona . We are in the ADVENTURELAND CAMPGROUND space # z22. John worked this week-end and is scheduled to work the next 2 week-ends as an assistant on the RAGING RIVER raft ride. His assignment is to assist passengers off of the raft at the end of their journey. BRRRRRRRR !!!!! was it ever cold out there this week-end. Felt like low 30's most of the day.

NOW FOR A FEW MORE PICTURES OF ADVENTURES FROM " THE LONGS' - ON THE ROAD "

This was the power plant along highway 100.

TENKILLER lake was across the highway for the CIRCLE M Boys ranch at Gore, OK. The lake level was extremely high while we were there, due to heavy rain.



So they were expelling the lake water through the power plant, creating a powerful mist and very turbulent water.

Flooding the peaceful trout stream that was downstream from the power plant. They told us that it was a favorite area to catch both RAINBOW AND BROWN TROUT.

While we were at the Boys Ranch at Gore, one of the mares had this colt . The ranch had over 60 head of horses that they used to teach the boys responsibility, riding , and work uses. THE BOYS RANCH HOLDS A RODEO AROUND THE MIDDLE OF OCTOBER which is one of their major fund risers. John suggested that they name the colt ' NOMAD' since he was born while we were there. lol'

Now that I have almost 5 days off , I should be able to ADD other pictures for our travels. Until then may GOD BLESSINGS be with each of you.

THE LONGS-JUDY,JOHN AND THE TRAVELING CATS.
