Around Checotah

 While staying at Checotah, we visited several other parks in the general area.  One of these was the closest one - Eufaula State Park.  And they had something really cute at their nature center - a "Frogatorium!"

 One of the many little frogs located in the numerous nooks and crannies inside the Frogatorium.

 A couple more...

 And Bill says Hi to one in a more conspicuous place.  

 Next place we checked out was super popular Tenkiller Lake State Park.  Note the water color...very different from Eufaula Lake, eh?!

 Being a holiday weekend, the place was jam-packed!

 Trucks and boat trailers lined the lake everywhere!  And tents were pitched in every available opening!

A lunch stop in the park.

 Just outside the restaurant...

 Wonder if these went into the fish sandwiches?  Probably not, but they sure would be fresh!

 One of the other state parks we visited was a bit smaller but very pretty - Greenleaf.

A field of flowers near one of the parks.  I wanted to get a better composition, but I was too afraid of getting chiggers!!!
