A new book for Faith!

We have a new book! This book is special to us. The picture on the cover was taken from our location! Dr. Basil Moss was the grandson of the Crains, the family who first homesteaded our land.
It was another hot summer in Oklahoma as we walked back up the road from a lovely country wedding. It was somewhat odd to find two people standing in our arena looking around. To our surprise, it happened to be Dr. Moss and his aunt. To the aunt's surprise we had saved a lot of the treasures we found (marbles, silverware, pieces of china). We had the pleasure of hearing stories of the Crain children playing with marbles and of how the family came to Oklahoma. The tale of the quest over the Red River can be read in Back Roads and Buffalo Trails.

This blog is brought to you by the lovely (biased opinion, we know) Stone Turtle – Lodging, a small family owned and operated hotel / lodging business near Lawton, Oklahoma, Fort Sill,  the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge, Meers and Medicine Park. Yeah, that’s right we’re a small lodging business close to all the awesomeness Oklahoma has to offer!!
