    Turner Falls Park truly encompasses the best of both the natural and man-made worlds, making it an exceptional destination for those traversing this captivating stretch of Route 77 in Oklahoma.

    That park belongs to the City of Davis OK. The fire marshal limits how many people can be in the park at any one time. In the summer/peak season, especially on weekends, it becomes so crowded you have to make reservations up to a year in advance.

  • @yawndave
    @yawndave 8 місяців тому +4

    Oklahoma, OK! 🙂 Wow, that storm cell looks pretty scary--wouldn't want to drive through that. The castle definitely needs some TLC but I imagine restoration would be really expensive. (You'd think they'd have enough in the budget to do something about the graffiti) The pool downstream from the falls looks very inviting--looking online I see they have a diving board, which is always a plus for me. Enjoy your visit to Dallas and have a safe trip home...happy trails!

    Loved the opening with Annie. Sorry to see how much that historic castle has decayed, and they really should do something about the graffiti. I was really impressed at how well preserved the historic homes and buildings were in some of the other places you traveled. Saving history can be a lot of work, but it's worth keeping so future generations appreciate see it.
