In the pandhandle of Oklahoma, east of the city of Guymon, you can find Optima State Wildlife Area. A large dam and recreation areas were built to surround what was intended to be a lake and vacation spot.

Any time of year you are likely to be able to find free food growing near you. No matter whether it is the middle of summer or winter, if you look hard enough it will be there. If you see signs of birds,

Yesterday was amazing here at Canton Lake. I woke up with great energy and went for a walk with the dogs after coffee. There are plenty of game trails and food plots here to explore. This is a good time

After making it through a wet, gray, but mild winter in eastern Oklahoma the camper is finally heading back to Colorado. Our trip started from Durango, CO in November and ended up as far southeast as

Moving on from Blue River and Hickory Point we have found a nice spot north of Muskogee, OK on Ft. Gibson Lake. Next to a very large state park are two free camping areas, Wahoo Bay and Jackson Point.

After getting out of the cold in Colorado last week, we finally found some decent weather down here in southeast Oklahoma. On our way from Durango, Co we stopped at Blanca, CO, Felt, OK, Oklahoma City,

Who doesn't love some steak over campfire? It's the only way I'll cook steak, and getting decent meat at a discount is always a bonus. These two "steaks" we're actually part of one chuck roast

It has been bitter cold here the last few days. Yesterday the lake froze overnight and then we had a light snow. We have been experiencing freezing temperatures inside our little camper at night, but staying

Today was one of those days when it just seems to keep getting colder. Right now the wind is blowing cold and hard from the northeast. After lunch we took a little walk before the cold front hit. Some

Our camping time was up at Lake Como Road so we moved back to Smith Reservoir which was only a short 20 minute drive. National forest land has a 14 day time limit and you must move one county over, and

After shaking the frost off this morning the sun came out and warmed us up enough to go collect more Pinion nuts today. We didn't see Paul today so we took the truck up with the dogs Drove the truck a

A few days ago we met a local named Paul who lives adjacent to the public property here where we are camped at. He likes to collect "treasures" on the mountain and this is the time of year when

This month we picked up an ounce of Lemon OG Haze from a cannabis shop in Fort Garland, CO. When we are camped out in this area it's our favorite shop since they usually have some good bud. The shop is

After today I do believe this must be the worst road in Colorado. Lake Como Road is a brutal hike, and anything other than a dirt bike may have a difficult time. Two broken down Jeeps are along the trail
