I had Tina with me! but even as good as she is the wind blew the winnie just as we got under it and she leaned to get it I felt my shoulder twinge and instead of trying to muscle the handle bars to recover I put my foot down!  better to do that than hurt my partner.  as soon as the games were over every one quickly cleaned up packed up and headed back camp! I wasn't sure if it would rain so I ask Garry to take my camera in his truck! I got back to camp found my friend and got my gear out of his truck and put it in the camper before it started to rain! I pulled my bike up under the awning in Sagebrush's camper.  I waited a few min while I got my rain gear out then went to look for Garry so I could get my camera back! just as I got out of the camper and started to walk around it started to hail but it was very small about the size of a small pea. as I was looking a few people tried to get me to get in their trailers out if hail! it was nice of them to ask! after several stops to ask I finally figured out where his camp was i was looking for a truck but it had left. finally Dawn hollered at me from the tent! I stuck my head in and got my camera back. after a bit it kind of quit and Garry and I took a walk about the camp and found a tattoo artist then I found my way back to the camper. I got a bite to eat then headed to into town! I did visit a bit with some people I know but there was not much going on so I went back to camp and got a bite to eat,

Now the CMA has a Cowboy cook  out of Guymon and he makes a mean pot of beans! but the cobbler he makes is oh so good! after eating I wondered back over into town! to visit and take pic of all the party. I kept walking around out in front and then thru the bar and back, every time I did I ran into some one else I knew!  about 1 I finally made my way back to camp! I was glad I had decided to stay in the camper with sagebrush! it got pretty cool and I had a nice warm real bed! I got up Sunday morning and it was still pretty damp out and cool too! I had coffee and a cinnamon roll The gathered up my gear and tied it to the bike! and headed home the weather man was saying more rain in the afternoon! I wanted to beat it home!  I hit the road about 930 and ran down thru Carmen then south to Cleo Springs! now I am beginning to realize they guy that made the comment about all tail wind didn't know what he was talking about! it was all side wind. the north wind was rough. oh well it was east from Cleo to Enid then south to Hennessey then back to the side wind to highway 74 then south again. as I was riding south I got to figuring out how far south and how far east I was traveling! it was 58 miles south and 110 east! well I finally got home and backed my bike into the garage about 15 min before the rain started! 
   Well till next time
