Day 5 - Grand Lake

This morning began with a garbage omlet (all things included) on top of a waffle. I am in Grove, OK at the Honey Creek resort. Staying in a one room cabin that was probably built in the late 40's or early 50's. I am at a gathering of Indian motorcycle riders from across the US. My roommate is from Rochester, NY. In all, there are about 25 bikes and about 40 individuals. There is even a motorcycle manufacturer called Crazy Horse who has brought models to test drive. I got on an Indian tricycle and enjoyed its comfort. Its almost like riding with the sidecar again because it doesn't lean into turns.

We are staying at the Honey Creek resort on Grand Lake in northeast Oklahoma. It is a huge body of water created by damming up the Elk River. We took time to ride around a portion of the lake and stopped to see my roomie's brother's yacht. Its a 46 foot Sea Ray with all of the bells and whistles.

Friday night was a fish fry and we were joined by local motorcyclists, including another Indian Rider. Temperature is in the mid 90's - to low 100's. Weather has been clear with very little clouds. Need to keep hydrated. Gas prices so far have been declining since leaving Chicago. Lowest price for regular, so far, has been $2.32.9
