I think Owasso is a great place. It has grown so much in the last 2 years (I am told). Pretty much everything I need is here and I never venture out to Tulsa. Mainly because I get lost there and have to have a GPS. If Owasso, built a Ross store and a Sam's Club, I would be in heaven. My step-son loves Broken Arrow and so does my boss.

I live in Kansas, but if I make a move, it would be to one of three places. Grand Lake, I love the area around there. Around Lawton, my grandmother lived there, and we always went up to the Whichta Mountains, what a beauitful area. And my last pick, and the most fun for me, is around Waynoka, Alva, I love riding the sand dunes on the sports quad.

I've never been to OK. I just looked at a map and wondered if certain places were nice or not. Obviously, the Ouachita NF area peaked my interest. As did Eufaula Lake and Grand Lake O' The Cherokees. Broken Bow Lake surrounded by Nat'l Forest? is that a nice area to live? I would like to avoid the humidity and bugs, that's why I asked abou the Panhandle. What's Guymon and Goodwell like?

None of OK is as humid as St Louis was [still is, I guess]. But I don't think there's any way to avoid bugs. For the most part, if you leave them alone, they'll leave you alone. Actually, I don't think there's anywhere in the world where you can avoid bugs. Alaska has a huge variety of flies and skeeters and spruce beetles, WA has sugar ants and hobo spiders that invade houses. Since I've gotten to OK I've seen plenty of bugs, but the only ones that were really annoying were the June bugs that kept getting caught in my hair. They get hysterical when their bony little legs get trapped, and they clunk when they fall. I have no idea how they manage to fly in the first place - they're aerodynamically impossible.
