Terry;

Glad you made it to the Great State of Oklahoma!  Perry is somewhat...rustic...

Sleep in a little.  Exit 166 is only about 14 miles after the turn onto I-40 East.  By the way, as you come down I-35S, merge to the right lane between N.E. 23rd Street and N.E. 10th.  The I-40E split is from the right hand lane.  Follow the sign for I-40E.

Perry is around Exit 186 and you are coming to the junction around mile marker 128, or around 58 miles.

Watch for the local speed traps around mile marker 138 and 133.  133 is where it drops to 60mph and they LOVE to make $$$ for the city. 

Mile Marker 138 is where the Turner Turnpike merges into I-35S and there are LOTS of trucks coming off and trying to cross 3 lanes in 200 or so feet to get to the truckstops there.  They also sit in the median in both places.

See ya in the morning!

Glad to hear everythings going fine, Terry.   Dizzyland and SoCal is a lotta fun, but I just wouldn't wanna live there.... too many people.   As far as I know, everyone made it home ok, you are the only ones still on vacation.    Wink

Terry & Elba,
Glad to hear everything is running fine.
Are you planning to meet up with your NW cousins again before heading home?
If you do, be sure to tell them they were dearly missed.
Probably won't see any of them till 2010.Unhappy

I hope Mike and I can make it next year!  Depends on the time of the year, though.  I can almost guarantee we won't be driving.  I did the drive from Caribou, Maine to Portland, OR once...don't care to do it again!!!
