For our sixth anniversary, combined with our babymoon, we went to a cabin in the Kiamichi Mountains. Tommy really treated me well because he is not one to enjoy sitting and doing nothing for days but I really needed to just be still for a while. We had a little creek flowing behind our cabin, a nice nature path, a small fishing pond (didn't even get a bite), and animal watching from our porch (birds and racoons, just like the city). I finished two books while we were there and Tommy got through a bunch of back issues of his magazine subscriptions. It was a nice break.
On our way back to get the kids we stopped to check out a few historical markers that we saw along the way. The Peter Conser home was interesting, can't really tell you why there was a life-sized fake horse in the barn.
The Heavener Runestone was probably the best adventure, though. Tommy remembers taking a field trip there in grade school and it was just as awe-inspiring today.
The woman in the gift shop was really the most awe-inspiring. She was so convicted to her cause, it was impressive. I am not sure that I could ever get that attached to some scratches in a rock but she was very interested in sharing it all with us.
