Elk City, OK to Oklahoma City, OK - Sept 10 - Day 10

The song about Oklahoma is true.... Oklahoma where the winds come sweeping down the plains.  We experienced lots of winds and lots of open plains in addition to great Route 66 history. Elk City, OK had a wonderful Route 66 Museum.  Along with the Route 66 culture in Oklahoma there is a huge American Indian influence.  We enjoyed shopping in the Indian trading posts and especially being able to try the Indian taco in Clinton, OK.  There were terrific murals in the towns as well as diners and remnants of Route 66 neon signs along the way.
