Kansas to Thackerville, Oklahoma

Today we got on the road early for a 350 mile drive to WinStar Casino in Thackerville, Oklahoma.

We got here early and rested then headed to the Casino for dinner and gaming.

Our drive was nice through the prairie in South Central Kansas....

Tio Jacob, remember Mulvane?   We visited my mom's younger brother when he lived here a few years ago.

He has since moved to the Dallas area to escape the tornados....
