Grove, Oklahoma

We arrived at the Bear's Den Resort in Grove, OK early this afternoon.  Even though this is our 3rd visit here, I had really forgotten how nice this area is.  This park is on Grand Lake and this weekend is the Pelican Festival.  The White Pelicans stop here every year in Sept-Oct on their migration route south.  We did see some on the lake near our park, but dusk was setting in and my pics didn't turn out as nice as I hoped.  I'll have to look for more tomorrow.  We went to The Grand Lake Casino this afternoon and I put $20.00 in a machine and in about 5 minutes I had $153.00 in credits, so I decided to take the loot & scoot.  Unfortunately, Bob wasn't as lucky.  But, we still came out way ahead.  :-)

They sure do have long legs!
