Hello Oklahoma, goodbye hackberry tree

With a bit of a break from work I decided to take a road trip north to Plano, TX to spend the July 4th weekend with my brother.

On Saturday morning, July 2nd I took off on a 300+ mile ride to Plano. Yes, it was hotter than heck, but I made it.

While there he mentioned that Lake Texoma, OK was less than 2 hours away.
That was all he had to say for me to get on the bike and take my first "out of state" adventure.
Headed North on TX-289(Preston Road) ,west for a bit on US-82 to US-377, then US-377 over lake texoma and you are in Oklahoma!



We woke up that morning to find one of the trees in my brothers backyard had crashed into his pool. Out came the chainsaws and about 2 hours later, the yard and pool were all cleaned up. Fortunately there was no damage to the house or other structures.
