We had a very early morning. We woke up at 2:45 to leave for Oklahoma City after about four hours of sleep. We arrived at a truck stop around 6:30 and went to bed again until 7:30. The place where w unloaded this morning only opened at 8:00 .
I took this photo while we were driving on the highway with my camera.
From the back of my Camera…
It looks like it is going to be a warm day. Waiting to hear where we are going to next…

PS. I am saving up for upcoming Landscape Photography Trips to Scotland and Namibia and a few road trips in the USA, including Route 66 and The historic Apache Trail. Also on my list are National Parks and Botanical gardens in South Africa, the UK, and the USA.
The most important photography trip for me is to return to Scotland. I am honoring my promise to my Father to return and capture the beautiful landscapes and the elusive Puffins. Your help to make these trips a reality would be much appreciated in today’s economy.
Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a peaceful nights rest.
We are on the road again. I have not taken many photos the past two days. Monday we were very busy. Monday evening we saw that the truck is leaking coolant.
Yesterday we drove from the one garage to the other to find someone to fix the leak. We tried to fix it but the leak was at the bottom of a bracket and needed to be welded.
After many phone calls I decided to look for welders in the area and found one not far from us.
The welder at Blacksmith Welding had no problem helping us and did an impeccable job. We left at 13:00, and only then did our working day start….

About two hours after my post was published last Monday, we received the news that our harvest was over.
I was disappointed at first, but then realised that I have so much to be grateful for.
I had the opportunity to test myself on an eight-hour-long road trip here in the USA. I loved every second of it and saw beautiful landscapes, and added a few towns to my Travel Bucket list.
I had the opportunity to photograph part of one of the towns on my Travel Bucket list. The other part I will do on my Route 66 Road trip.
I learned much about harvesting and how the combines and grain carts work. I am sad I did not have the opportunity to drive the grain cart but all things happens for a reason.
I had the opportunity to drive the big truck and pull the fuel trailer when we moved to a new cornfield.
We returned home on Tuesday morning and resumed our normal day-to-day routine.

I drove from Byers, Texas, to Wiona, Kansas on Thursday morning to join Christo on harvest.
I can honestly say that so far I am finding it very interesting and I am learning a lot.
There is a chance I will learn a few new skills during my time here. I am super excited about it and can’t wait to share my adventures with all of you.

Comanche is a city in Stephens County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 1,663 at the 2010 census.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 4.6 square miles (12 km2), all land.
Comanche, Oklahoma, USA, 28 February 2023
History of Comanche, OK
Comanche is a small city in southwest Oklahoma, set in rolling prairie land interspersed with oil fields, ranches, farms, pecan orchards, and timbered areas.
Comanche is located in what was once the famous Louisiana Purchase, a part of which was later 1855 designated Indian Territory and set aside for the Five Civilized Tribes. Comanche became part of the Chickasaw Nation and was identified as Comanche, Indian Territory, until statehood in 1907.
The city has had a series of names. The first settlers lived north of the present site and called the settlement Tucker.
With the coming of the Rock Island Railroad in 1892, Indian landowner Johnny D. Wilson gave the city its current location on the railroad, and the Tucker post office was moved here in 1893. Many had wanted to call it Wilson Town; some called it Border Queen because of the annual large celebrations, carnivals, bands, and Indian activities. Mr. Wilson, however, insisted it is named Comanche because of the Comanche Indians who roamed here. Comanche was incorporated on November 23, 1898, and began its progress, located about two miles (3.2 km) east of present-day Comanche.
The cattle were driven from Texas, through Indian Territory to Kansas for shipment east. Parts of this historic trail can still be clearly seen today. Comanche has a colorful history is still reflected in its lifestyle and activities. A Western flavor is felt here, and Comanche is often called the “rodeo capital of the world.” Indeed, many World Champion Rodeo performers call Comanche home. As do oil companies and oil field workers, racehorse, Quarter Horse owners, and farmers add their influence. Authentic Indian customs and tribal observations are still practiced. Artists, educators, and others add still more variety and culture. Indeed, it can be said that Comanche’s greatest asset is its diversity of talent and people.
Entertainment in Comanche, OK
Recreation in the Comanche Area is divided into lake activities and sports. Waurika Lake, a 10,000-acre (40 km2) lake, lies eight to ten miles (16 km) southwest of Comanche on access roads. The lake’s recreational area offers all related activities (camping, swimming, fishing, boating, and hunting). Comanche Lake, three miles (4.8 km) east on Hwy. 53, offers the same recreations on a smaller scale.
