Red Rock Canyon – OK

Just a short 2 hr. drive west of Oklahoma City is a hidden little gem, Red Rock Canyon State Park.  It’s free for day use and proved to be a nice place for a couple quick hikes.  My friend Desiree and I took a drive a couple weeks ago and landed there.  The weather was great and the canyon was pretty cool.  There are two trails for hiking, neither of them very long nor strenuous but it fit the bill.  Walking along the trail, I’m thinking about what it must have looked like back when the cattle drives were prevalent in these parts, as well as the Indians that had roamed the area.  Desiree on the other hand kept telling me what a great place to stage a horror movie….. WTH ! ! Yeah, like my imagination isn’t crazy enough, let’s go ahead and through some zombie’s or Leatherface in the mix.  Hilarious.  A stop at Swadley’s BBQ on the way home and all was right with the world again.
