Fall Fun in Oklahoma

A week of rainy cold skies make it clear that Fall has arrived in Oklahoma. Rich green woodland scenes around Oklahoma are suddenly steaked with dark red shrubs and vivid yellow trees. I love this season's dramatic changes in weather. Many of my favorite Oklahoma rivers are up and flowing again, after months of parched conditions.

Time for float trips, camping and visits to the zoo. Once the sunshine returns, I highly reccomend everyone enjoy the next few weeks of crisp mornings, cool afternoons and dramatic skies in the Sooner State. Take a cup of serenity from nature, you may need it. The holidays are just around the corner!
