Lake of the Arbuckles

When Trailer Marketing opened this morning, we pulled into a service bay, unhitched, and raised the trailer on the Bigfoot levelers. Then Todd and his workers checked out our brakes. They determined that there was a lot of air in the system, so they bled the brakes. That was a quick fix--we hope.

The air in the lines could have been there either because the lines were not properly bled when the new parts were installed, in which case the problem is now fixed. Or it's possible that there is a leak in the system somewhere, in which case the problem will recur. We'll have to wait and see.

It was a little after 10:00 when we left Oklahoma City. We decided to move on to Lake of the Arbuckles, which will leave us only about 120 miles to travel on Sunday to Lewisville. Todd recommended it enthusiastically. The lake is part of the Chickasaw National Recreation Area, near Sulphur, OK. We were looking for a first come, first served site long enough for us and reasonably easy to get into. We were very lucky to find site #20 available. It was a bit tricky to back into it: on our first approach, we nearly scraped the rear skirting on the driveway, but we maneuvered again and finally made a straight shot back into our slot.

We don't have a view of the lake, exactly, but neither do most of the RV sites. Many of the tent sites are along the lakeshore.



Firefox has been my browser of choice for years now, but it suddenly started freezing my computer every time it opened. I tried restarting, and when that didn't work, I uninstalled and reinstalled it. When that didn't work, I tried again, deleting all personal info and settings, just in case something there was the problem. Still no dice. So now I'm using Chrome. Sigh.
