Day 7: Going native

We started the day in Cave Springs, Arkansas, and by noon we had driven about 225 miles to El Reno, Oklahoma. Thanks to 75 mph speed limits on the Oklahoma turnpike, and later in Texas (thanks, Gov. Perry!), we drove the 470 miles in about 9 hours, including a few stops for gas, and lunch at Sid's Diner in El Reno. Sid's was written up in Virginia's Saveur magazine...famous for their burgers with fried onions (on the burger) and the usual lettuce and tomato and pickles. thankfully, we got a half order of fries for both of us...half of that order would have filled the bill. this, along with a coke, cost about $9.

W're in Amarillo this evening, fixin' to go to a steak restaurant here in downtown Amarillo.
cheers,
David
