Camping at Lake Texhoma
Posted June 4, 2013Our friends Daryl and Jenn invited us to go with them this year to Lake Texhoma. We’ve never been able to go with them, but this year was different. We had a blast!
On our way down there (6 hour drive), we drove through Moore, Ok. That is where the really bad tornado hit the week before. The damage was unbelievable. Unfortunately, all the traffic slows to a crawl, to look at the damage. I wonder how long the traffic will be like that?
We arrived around 9 p.m. in the dark. What a pain to set up in the dark.
The next morning, Penny and I looked around the waterfront area.
Jenn’s Dad, Joe, has a boat and is happy to take everyone fishing. Joe, Kim, Jerry, Daryl, and Clayton all went out for the first fishing run. Oh, and Herc, the giant Schnauzer!
Daryl caught a small one, that got thrown back. Clayton had a couple that got away.
Later, Daryl caught one from shore. A Carp. He was injured by the hooks recovering the feisty fish and asked Clayton to hold if for a picture.
Friday, we all set out for a little swimming at a beach across the lake. We took the boat on two trips to get everyone there. The beach had really nice sand, and the water temp was pretty nice.
Over the few days, lots more fishin’, horse shoe throwin’, and eatin’.
We had a great time.
