Pumpkin Center?

I did a short Google search to find out how many there are in the USA… It is a unique name for a town, although most are not towns (anymore)… I came up with two in Oklahoma?  one near Lawton and one near Muskogee… I think I have been to both, I am sure about the one outside Lawton but the one in Muskogee?  I have been around Muskogee so figure I must of passed thru and didn’t realize it… I have also been to one in Colorado… several times…

In the rear view as we went through on our way home last week… maybe 3 houses and a few barns?  no population on the sign… but they have a stop sign…

I don’t think the one near Lawton has a stop sign… but did have a restaurant at one time…

I also found there is one in CA, KY, FL, NC, LA, and?  Some are large enough to have business listings… oh boy… that is just like how many “FAIRVIEW” cemeteries are there in the USA?  I know of several in Oklahoma and I don’t go looking for those places… but they tell me people are just dying to get in?

My new jeep did pretty good on the way home with no trailer or extra load…

I drove from 65 to 70 most of the way (of course keeping to the speed limits)… he he… and it was getting over 21 for almost all the trip 0 the above is an average somewhere in Oklahoma after about 300 miles…

toward the end of out drive home we had a pretty fantastic sunset…

Not too bad…

While I was in C Springs I captured this guy out for a drive…

Made the comment that If I had that car and he had a feather , we would both be tickled but I think me a lot more than him, but now… I am sure he is a lot more than me… tickled and well off …

Today I made a trip to OKC to get my hearing aids checked, cleaned and adjusted… once that was done I made my appointment to get the jeep fixed… it has an oil leak?  and only 13000 miles… as well as a birdie squeak at times… the oil leak is a broken top manifold where the filter mounts… the tech says he figures the last shop where I got my oil changed over – tightened the filter… and the water pumps are know to squawk ??? Jeep knows but they aren’t defective, just noise, although he will replace it Wednesday when he gets the manifold to fix the oil leak… guess I either change the oil myself or get a better place than Wal-Mart? I am letting them know about their mistake, although all the repairs are to be done under warranty… just another headache…
