heading west...



So we gladly leave the Oklahoma City Best Western and head west. After an hour or so of driving, i give the dogs their first leg stretch in Foss, Oklahoma. Another small town with big spaces. The town was named after a guy named Foss, who had founded a post office here. We stop at a historical marker and find it really is just that, a marker. We're frolicking at the site of a school once used for the white man's children fleeing the Indians in the late 1800's. 3 fires and a flood had destroyed this site time and time again. By the 1940's, somebody got the bright idea to not rebuild...
